Taking It Easy

My vacation continues. We traded the nearly-freezing temperatures of Toronto for the beautifully-warm, 80 degree temperatures of Atlanta, and we have no regrets. It is beautiful down here this time of year – much more so than when we usually visit (December or July). If it was like this all the time, I would consider moving here!

I have been doing lots of reading and have finally caught up on book reviews. I am also doing some work while I’m here, and sitting in a small room with the windows and doors open, music blaring, has been as relaxing as if I was doing no work at all. Just because it is a working vacation, doesn’t mean I’m not enjoying it!

I will have a couple of new sites to post this week, and am excited about that.

And now I am about to head over to my sister and brother-in-law’s house for dinner – the first time we’ve been to their house since they got married last summer. It should be a good time!

Some are looking for a resource that will serve as the main component of their devotions and others for something that will be merely supplementary. Either way, I’ve collected some of the resources I most recommend…

    It Is We Who Must Be Bent

    We must always pray that we would conform ourselves to the Word rather than conforming the Word to ourselves. We must always pray that we would allow our desires to be changed according to the Bible rather than allowing the Bible to be changed according to our desires. We must guard ourselves against looking to…
