Women Living Well- Who will you listen to?

In the first section of the book Courtney opens with asking this question. Recently I have felt bombarded by all the information I receive; blog posts, twitters, photos, facebook etc... I enjoy checking all these things out, but do I enjoy receiving this worldly information as much as I enjoy receiving wisdom from God?

I makes me stop and think about the amount of time I spend in the word. I need to take the time to devote more time in the word than in the world.
Psalm 4:21 "As a deer pants for flowing streams, so pants my soul for you, O God."
I love how in chapter 2 Courtney addresses making the time for a quiet time with God each day. She gives some great practical tips you can put to use to help you get in the habit of having this time each day.

One thing I really admired that Courtney does is keeping a bible on the kitchen table. She models this after her own mother. What a great thing for my own children to see one day. God's word always being available to read and showing my children how important it is to take the time to be in God's word.

I hope this has encouraged you to think of how you are spending your time.

Women Living Well

I am so excited to have been asked to be a part of a new book launch. Courtney from http://womenlivingwell.org/ will be releasing her first book on Oct. 1. The book shares the title of her blog. It is a great book about "Finding your joy in God, Your Man, Your Kids and Your Home."

I will be sharing what I loved about this book  over the next few weeks.
I finished this book over the weekend and was so encouraged by it. I was also given many ideas on how to continue to serve God and my family. I hope through my writing you will be encouraged to check this book out.

Check back as I share what I have learned!
