Disguised Blessing...

“Blessings sometimes show up in unrecognizable disguises. ”
~Janette Oke

I have been in the mood for reading recently-mostly due to having to rest more with

this illness. I realized today that it truly is a blessing to do it! (whatever the reason)

I get my work done in the morning, and read in the afternoon...

(helps me work faster knowing the rest period is coming!)

I have been reading a mix of books, some of them for research, and some for fun.

For fun right now I am reading through Janette Oke's Love Comes Softly series.

I have read it several times, but love them so!

I was thinking about what I love about them today...

I love the characters--they are so real I can almost picture them

I love the lifestyle they lived--although hard work, they spent a lot of family time together

Also, I love Marty in her homemaker role!

I love the spiritual emphasis of course, and the way the lived out their faith daily

I find them inspiring, and something to encourage me!

What are you reading these days?
