"My All in All" (Part 1)

Hi Friends~

Happy New Year!  I pray that you have all enjoyed this holiday weekend, and if you have made any resolutions, that they include getting to know Him as  closely as possible. You could spend as much time in prayer as possible.  Read His Word every day…even a paragraph!  And, encourage others in daily life…and to know the Lord, Jesus the Christ!

I am leaving for my son Joshua’s graduation from the Basic Military Training from the Air Force this week.  I doubt I will have the time or energy to post while I am gone.  You will all be in my prayers, as usual.  I will be spending some quality time with  my son that I haven’t seen for almost 3 months, and will not be able to see for almost a year! It is difficult for me to travel, we are heading to San Antonio, Texas. My back, legs and migraines are usually pretty bad when I travel. I am praying that my disabilities will not keep me from attending any of Josh’s events!

So, I will draw 2 names next week for our He IS Able Card Set Give-Away!  I’m not sure what day it will be, so please stop by Monday, Wednesday and Friday.  I will be recuperating from the trip so as soon as able, I will announce the winners.  It is difficult for me to travel, we are heading to San Antonio, Texas.  My back, legs and migraines are usually pretty bad when I travel.  I am praying that my disabilities will not keep me from attending any of Josh’s events!  Be sure to leave a comment before Tuesday at 8pm to be eligible to receive a set of beautiful hand made cards.

I have started a new book of Devotions.  I have been waiting a while to start it on the 1^st .  And, I read the introduction the day before.  It may seem odd, but I want to share the introduction with you.  It is amazing…and so inspiring!  The book has a long name…

“Daily Assurance of God’s Grace…My All in All”   It is written by Robert J. Morgan and B and H Publishing Group put it out.  And, I love the feel of this paperback. The pages feel worn, the outside edge is "texturized" somehow…some pages stick out more than others, over and over it has ridges!  And it just feels like it has been read by many before me…this exact book--even though that was not the case.  The cover is an antiqued gold and brown, and the edges look as if they were distressed with Tim Holtz’s Distress Inks.  It is cozy.  If I am being clear about what I mean.

I hope you will enjoy these few days as I split this wonderful Introduction to this book and the 1st Devotion into a few parts.  You know how God provides?  Well, I pray for Him to please provide the material that is shared on this blog.  Well, when you get to the 1st Devotion...you will KNOW that it was made to be shared on the He IS Able blog!

I am setting the next post to automatically show up on Wednesday morning.  Have a great week!  God Bless!

He IS Able!
