The West family is considering a few MAJOR changes right now. We (Justin and I) feel that these things are in God’s plan, but would REALLY like a little assurance in some way. I “coincidentally” came upon this song by Todd Agnew. The chorus is like this:
So if you are reading this, please take a second and pray that Justin and I would follow God’s will and have a peace that we are following His will and not ours. And look up Todd Agnew on youtube–he has some amazing songs that are so very honest about what he sometimes feels as a believer.
Speaking of writings, I am currently reading book 2 of the Inn Boonsboro series, written by Nora Roberts. I’m a HUGE Nora Roberts fan, and if you haven’t read any of her books, this series is perfect. Book 2 is titled The Last Boyfriend– a little romance, a little mystery, even a touch of the supernatural. (If you’re interested, book 1 is The Next Always.)
Also on my summer reading list are the following:
- Grace for the Good Girl: Letting Go of the Try-Hard Life by Emily Freeman
- Harry Potter by JK Rowling (I actually want to read this entire series! Can’t believe I’m an elementary librarian and haven’t read them before now! Shhhh…. don’t tell anyone!)
- One Thousand Gifts by Ann Voskamp
- Give Them Grace: Dazzling Your Kids with the Love of Jesus by Elyse Fitzpatrick
- The Yellow Sock: An Adoption Story by Angela Hunt
- Tamara’s Child by BK Mayo
Just a bit of humor: I realized as I was making this list that all of these books, with the exception of Harry Potter, are faith-based novels. I guess after reading the Fifty Shades of Grey trilogy, God knew I needed to cover that trash up with some good, moral information. He DOES have a sense of humor 🙂
Have you read any of these books? Have any great summer reads you would like to share?
