Hey friends!
Thanks of all of you who entered to win our Doe A Deer Good Food Cookbook giveaway last week! So fun.
And yay! Another giveaway! This week, we are giving away a Bible that has just recently been released, the Fresh Start Bible, Direction for Every Day. This Bible is in the New Living Translation, a fresh, super easy translation to read and understand.
Check out this short video that shows the transforming power of God’s word:
I love this comforting quote from one of the Bible’s many commentaries:
This Bible is packed full not only of God’s Word, but also a whole bunch of extra, powerful features including commentaries, daily reading plans, and maps. To learn more about those, watch this short clip.
As we enter into the season of Christ’s birth, and then as we begin a new year, let’s purpose to get into God’s Word every day. After all, Hebrews 4:12 says,
“For the word of God is alive and powerful. It is sharper than the sharpest two-edged sword, cutting between soul and spirit, between joint and marrow. It exposes our innermost thoughts and desires.”
Something to think about as we start 2020,
We are giving away the softcover/linen version, and we will randomly draw a winner one week from today, December 18th. Keep it for yourself, or give it someone special in your life. To enter, comment with your favorite Bible verse! Merry Christmas!
Jeremiah 17:7-8
7 “But blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord,
whose confidence is in him.
8 They will be like a tree planted by the water
that sends out its roots by the stream.
It does not fear when heat comes;
its leaves are always green.
It has no worries in a year of drought
and never fails to bear fruit.”
Favorite Bible verse is Isaiah 40:31. Over the years, it has lifted me up many times, in everyday situations as well as trying times. Merry Christmas to all of you and your families.
Those who wait upon the Lord will renew their strength, they shall mount up on wings of eagles. They shall run and not grow weary they shall walk and not faint.
I prayed to the LORD, and he answered me; he freed me from all my fears.
Psalm 34:4
If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. (James 1:5)
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.
1 Corinthians 13:4-5
