The little things....

The older I get the more I appreciate the little things in life....homemade pumpkin spice lattes, warm pjs, and good books! I try as often as I can to read something Christian related since it's so hard to find time to really delve into the Bible (something I desperately need to improve on!). I am currently re-reading The Shack, a book about a man's meeting with God, literally, and recently finished reading The Hiding Place for the third time. I highly recommend both of those books but suggest you have a box of tissues or two near you when reading.

As much as I love these books however, nothing, I mean NOTHING compares to Sheldon Vanauken's A Severe Mercy. This is hands down my favorite book of all time. I've already read it twice and probably will read it many times again as soon as I get it back from the 23421423515 people I've promised to loan it to. I won't spoil it for you and give anything away but I will highly suggest you add it to your winter reading list...puts the Notebook to shame :) If you like C.S. Lewis you will love this book!
