A Prayer and Praise Coloring Journal

This is a fun looking hard back journal that incorporates praise, coloring, prayers, sketching etc. all in one book.  There are pages to color that maybe have a verse on them. There are lined pages and there are blank pages for whatever you want to do with them.

A few examples: There's a page spread with one side saying "I am grateful" and the instructions are to draw or sketch people and things you are grateful for. Now obviously, I would choose writing because otherwise even I wouldn't know what I drew. And the other side is a picture of various birds to color.

There's a page spread that has a title of "learn to DANCE in the Rain" followed by a prayer and a Bible verse. The other side has "He will wipe EVERY TEAR" and some lined journaling space after that for writing down thoughts.

It strikes me as a thought-provoking journal. I use a journal to write down the thoughts or struggles I'm having currently. This journal would be more down the line of consciously choosing to think and journal about different topics.

I really like it and again think it would make a great Christmas gift. I love books like this and I haven't decided if I'm going to hang on to it and go through it myself or if I should pass it along as a gift someday.  We will have to see.

I received this book from Tyndale House in exchange for my honest review.  All opinions expressed are my own.

Fragrant Whiffs of Joy by Dorcas Smucker (It's Giveaway time)

Ah yes, this was just what the doctor ordered. I've wanted to review Dorcas' last book or two and was always too chicken to ask, but this time I threw caution to the wind and said, "Yes, I want to review your book." And I'm so glad I did. It was the perfect book for this stage in my life. Short, easy to read chapters that can be picked up and read whenever and wherever. They are guaranteed to either make you laugh, smile, cry, or or just give you that ah-ha feeling that someone else experiences life like that too.  I could quote from pretty much every chapter something that struck me in one of those ways, but I really want you to go buy the book so I won't do that many spoilers. I only want to give you a hint of what is to come in the book. First off, isn't the cover beautiful? I can dream of a kitchen table like that with the apple pie still steaming and the tea pot, or coffee pot more likely, full to the brim and a beautiful arrangement of flowers ...

All the Pretty Things by Edie Wadsworth

I haven't posted a book review in over two weeks, I must be lazing off!!! Actually, I had two books going at once and also read a non-review book in between. Not that I think anyone missed me or anything. But just to be clear, I am back and have about six books to review in the next few weeks. Okay, "All the Pretty Things". When I started this book, I loved it. I thought it was an amazing story and it is. Edie was born to an alcoholic father. She rarely saw him sober, but she loved him and enabled him until his dying day. She missed that father figure in her life and attempted to salve that wound by working hard at everything she put her hand to except her marriage. She was raised in rather extreme poverty. Her parents divorced and both remarried, but divorced again. She was abused as a child, though it became a repressed memory that came out through recurring nightmares. She was introduced to Jesus and would often respond to altar calls to make sure she was saved. Sh...
