I'm finally settled in our new country and with addi attending school now I find myself with free time while logan takes his mid day nap. ..somehow my book I never was able to get into (i was just too busy!)for my bible study back in the spring 'a lineage of grace' by Francine Rivers made its way here even though all we have is suitcases...hmmm...the point is, is i can't put it down! I feel like it made it secretly into my luggage for a reason. I find myself bawling in the pages describing the pain (emotional and physical) Tamar encountered in the house of Judah. In a few short chapters I feel connected to these real life characters. These strong women who structured the course of our biblical history. It gives me hope, and an inner strength that I can do anything, a reassurance that God will in fact look over me and my family and not let anything bad happen to us as long as we have faith in him and nothing but him.
You havn't read it? Then you should! Keep in mind it is historical fiction, but it is fantastic!
I give credit where it's due; new jersey. If there is one thing I can take away from that place it is the re-birth of my faith. I feel like my whole outlook has changed since then. When most people would have been stressing about a move to the middle of another country with not so much as a fast food chain I just kept praying for peace and some how I made it through the whole transition without one giant melt down. I'm not saying things wernt hard, but I knew we were going to be taken care of.
Sorry too much religion for you? I couldn't help it, my heart was full with faith this morning and I needed to share!
