I picked up this book from the church giveaway table. It doesn’t look like it’s been read :)
I’ve heard the name Bob Goff, but I forgot the context. So I thought I’d give it a try.
It’s an inspirational book, though I don’t agree with all his spiritual reflections about God. I don’t like…
I didn’t know what to expect. The periodontist said the tooth extraction would take a couple minutes. I would be able to drive myself. So I was thinking it was no big deal.
It’s true, pulling out the tooth only took a couple minutes. But the whole process was about 50 minutes. The pain after the anesthesia wore off was quite intense. I wasn’t expecting that.
Having been a follower of Christ for so long, I still wonder why God doesn’t do more miracles in answering our good and reasonable prayers. I know the answers intellectually, but on an emotional level, I have to keep asking God to remind me that though he slay me, still I will follow.
“Why is it important that Jesus rose from the dead?” A fourth grader asked.
I’m working on explaining that in 13 minutes or less for the Easter sermon in a way that a 4th grader can understand and will change his life.
How has the resurrection changed my life? Does it change my life on a day to day?
I decided this morning that I would be optimistic. I would be happy.
I have to remind myself of this often throughout the day. Otherwise my mind drift off to thinking about the weakness of my body. I am learning to be content with my body.
I don’t know what gave me the courage. I don’t know why I said yes to an acupuncture treatment.
Maybe I’ve been thinking about it for a while. Maybe I was hoping it’d be the silver bullet I’ve been looking for to clean up my health.
Well, it was not the silver bullet…but at least it didn’t hurt.
I’ve lost motivation to do crafts. I would rather read, walk, talk to people.
Making things that do not have purpose seem to be…purposeless, a waste of time.
Unless I can see some eternal value with what I make, I don’t want to spend the time.
Everyone highly recommended this book. It took me a while to read it. It’s not the kind of book you read to get through it for the information. It’s more of a devotional book to dwell on and grow it in your heart.
I was not too impressed with the first couple of chapters, but it started to grow on me.
Every year, I say I want to blog more to keep track of my life. But as with every typical new year resolution, I fail after the first few months.
Now it’s another year!
I didn’t even keep track of books I read towards the end of 2020.
Here are the last 2 books I read last year: Highly recommend both
