A Word for Wednesday

"...God notices the most trivial act, accepts the poorest, most threadbare little service, listens to the coldest, feeblest petition, and gathers up with parental fondness all our fragmentary desires and attempts at good works. Oh, if we could only begin to conceive how He loves us, what different creatures we should be!"

~from Stepping Heavenward by Elizabeth Prentiss~

  1. Alright, I need to borrow this for my book list of 2017. Which will have 3 books instead of one. ����

    1. It's so good. It's really emotional in certain places, I have to warn you! What are your other two books for 2017?

    2. Well, I'm hoping to complete the first Mark of the Lion Series before New Years, so my other goal would be to finish the other two before the end of next year. I know that's crazy short, but I have learned with 3 kids you have to shorten expectations. Haha!
