Hi Friends! How’s your summer been? It’s going by fast. Enjoy your August!
1. One of my favorite authors has a new book being released on August 9th. The book is Uninvited, Living Loved When You Feel Less Than, Left Out, and Lonely by Lysa TerKeurst. I can not wait for this one. I’m on her launch team and received a sneak peek at the first 3 chapters. Lysa is the president of Proverbs 31 Ministry and they’ll be hosting an online Bible study soon with this book and the Bible.
2. We all know there is an “App for everything”, right? I recently downloaded the Echo Prayer app. I’ve been using it for about a week and what I like is setting reminders to pray. Yes, because I get so caught up in my day, I forget to pray. Maybe it’s age. Anyway, this app is helping me grow in the discipline of prayer. I’m thankful for technology, aren’t you?
3. This isn’t a new thing I learned this month but a reminder that my mom was so right about many things. She always told me gaining weight would catch up to me. I was always too skinny, really. Well, for the first time in my life, I want to lose weight. I’m learning that it is hard. I love ice cream and Dr. Pepper and Reese Cups. Oh, my! It’s hard to say NO to these. I’m learning discipline in this area too. I want to be healthy more than anything.
4. Along with eating more healthy, I believe in using good-for-you-healthy-products. I discovered Grove Collaborative through The Nesting Place website. They offer healthy products delivered right to your door. I’m trying new all natural, cleaning products, at a reasonable price. They smell so wonderful it makes me want to clean! Receive $10 off your first order when you sign up. Tell them I referred you and I will also receive $10. Thank you!
What have you learned in July? Please share.
Thank you for reading. 🙂
