The rain is falling intermittently as I am writing this post and it reminds me of God's grace in watering our lives with gifts that grow our soul. New books by good authors are on of these ways.New books by favourite authors is always something to get excited about. When the authors in question happen to be friends that is even better.
Lisa-Jo Baker is mom to three children and blogs at lisajobaker.com. Her first book is called Surprised by motherhood and it is
excellent. If you are a mom or know someone who is, I highly recommend this
book. She is about to bring out a second book called Never Unfriended, the secret to keeping lasting friendships.
It deals with friendship between women and uplifting and devastating these friendships can be because, quite honestly, women can be quite savage with others of their species, leaving scars that can hurt for decades. She is giving away the first two chapters for FREE, so go on over to her blog and sign up. I have already started reading the first chapter and I can tell you it is excellent. Never Unfriended will be published on 4 April 2017, so do yourself a favour and pre-order your copy or keep an eye out for it on the shelves.
The second book I would like to recommend is Walking in Grace by Dalene Reyburn. Dalene is mom to two awesome boys and has learnt the
hard way about walking in grace. I have an enormous amount of respect for her
and her husband and God is using both of them to bless others. Walking in Grace
is a 365 day devotional and if you want to deepen your walk with God, then get
this devotional. It is already on the shelves, so do yourself a favour and get
a copy.
Dalene and Lisa-Jo have been wonderfully blessed as authors and write
from deep experience with words that reach deep into your heart.
On a completely different not I would love to share this
beautiful storm lily with you. It was one of four given to me by a friend and
it is the lone survivor.
Thanks for stopping by and happy reading!
