A Giveaway

I've spent much of my "seeking peace" time reading I Believe in Love: A Personal Retreat Based on the Teaching of St. Terese of Lisieux by Fr. Jean d'Elbee. I first want to share my deepest thanks to Jenn for constantly mentioning this book to me. I had attempted to read it a few times before, and I truly believe God was clouding my mind until such a time as this, because I could never really understand it -- and it's not a difficult book!

You know all the whining and questioning I do on this blog, about God, and love, His love, and heaven, answered prayers, and doing God's will? IT'S ALL ANSWERED IN THIS BOOK. When I finish it this time I'm going to go right back to the beginning and start again. I believe anyone who reads my blog and empathizes with my whining, questioning, and searching will find some measure of peace in what is taught in this book.

I believe it is such a great book that I am giving away a new copy straight from Amazon to you. Leave a comment here or on my facebook post about the same subject and I'll draw a random name on Wednesday night.

Thanks be to God.

  2. I don't need to be in your drawing, but I just had to say, I'M SO HAPPY you are enjoying it! Giving a copy away is exactly what my mother and I do! We just think that book is just life-changing and THAT good!

  3. I was going to message you at Facebook today and beg for you to come back here, I have missed you so. Truly, I was!! So you may imagine my delight when I saw a post from you! Thank you for the book recommendation, it sounds like something I would like (and need!) to read. For some odd reason I feel quite drawn to St Therese. But please don't enter me in the giveaway as the postage to NZ would be far too much for you to consider.

    Blessings, dear Amy. I hope you are happy and well.
