The Righteous Will Prosper

Sunday, September 13th, 2009

Do not fret because of the wicked; do not be envious of wrongdoers, for they will soon fade like the grass, and wither like the green herb. Trust in the Lord, and do good, so you will live in the land, and enjoy security.  Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you the […]

Fools Rush In

ISLAND BREEZES This is Janice Thompson’s first in the Weddings by Bella series, and I’m so glad that it won’t be her last.  When I first started reading it, I thought it would be a bit of fluff.  Was I ever wrong!  I loved this book and all the quirky characters and crazy happenings.  I […]

Summer Salads

Friday, September 11th, 2009

The Review of Jesus: Why the World is Still Fascinated by Him

Tuesday, September 8th, 2009

This book was featured on September 4th, but I had not had a chance to finish reading it at the time.  I knew I could not do justice to a review until it was read.  I’ve been a fan of Tim LaHaye’s books for a long time, so I expected this one to be another […]

Happy Birthday, Anne Marie

Monday, September 7th, 2009

Happy Birthday to my Labor Day baby!  My daughter was a Labor Day baby.  Of course, she’s no longer a baby.  She’s a beautiful young woman.  But the memories of that much awaited daughter are still strong.  Her birth wasn’t expected for another two weeks or more.  Her older brother was two weeks late, so […]
