4th of July // 2016

Hey everyone! I hope you all have a blessed Fourth of July!! :D  Today as millions of Americans attend cookouts and watch fireworks, what are we ultimately celebrating?  Freedom. Independence. Love of country. Pride of being Americans. All good things, right?  But let's remember that we're celebrating our freedom from Great Britain's rule, many years ago. We aren't independent. We are and always will be dependent on God.  “Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me . I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing .” -- John 15:4-5 KJV Pray for our country today and always.  May we never forget the sacrifices made for our freedom. May we always remember what this great country was founded on. May God continue to bless America.  God Bless you all! <3  ~Faith Note: t...

The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien {Book Review}

Image
Hey guys! Book review time. :) I started this book with Bethany R.'s read-along in April, but didn't get around to finishing it until this month. ;)  ~ Book Description  Bilbo Baggins is a hobbit who enjoys a comfortable, unambitious life, rarely traveling any farther than his pantry or cellar. But his contentment is disturbed when the wizard Gandalf and a company of dwarves arrive on his doorstep one day to whisk him away on an adventure. They have launched a plot to raid the treasure hoard guarded by Smaug the Magnificent, a large and very dangerous dragon. Bilbo reluctantly joins their quest, unaware that on his journey to the Lonely Mountain he will encounter both a magic ring and a frightening creature known as Gollum.  ~ My Rating  3.5 stars  ~ My Review  I know this is favorite book among many, so don't throw rocks at me but...this wasn't a favorite.  First of all, fantasy isn't really my thing. Second, little dwarves with beards and hoods aren'...

Heaven's Jubilee by Faith Blum {Book Review}

Image
~ Description .  Heaven's Jubilee   ~  Followers of The Way were being rounded up, but I never expected to be one of them. I wanted to ask God, "Why Me" but would it do any good? Instead, I prayed for strength and endurance, little knowing how much I would need it.   Zane's Consequences   ~  I'd always done things my way. Why would my flight test be any different?   Hope is All that is Left ~  Our parents had been arrested and Liz and I now hid from unknown enemies. We had nothing left until we remembered one thing: The hope that spring would come again.  Darren's Choice ~  I never should have signed the contract. Not without knowing what my invention would be used for. Now I had a hard choice to make. Violate my conscience or forfeit my life?   New Life ~  So much pain. So much suffering. We were sick without cure until the angel came.     Star Kitty: The Data Files ~  My name is Data and I am a cat. I neve...
