100th Post & 1st Giveaway!!




**Drum rolls** Attention...it is finally here, my one hundredth post!!! YAY!

:) Ok, I'm done now. ha! But I have been really excited about this post, and the giveaway.


Remember the post a few days ago "the most bitter cup I've ever had to drink", or something along those line? Well, Clif and I had been talking about what in the world I could use for my giveaway. I wanted it to be something special to my heart. I wanted to use something that could help others.


SO, after writing that post and emailing the author of the book I spoke of,

it hit me! Why not buy a couple copies of the book and give THOSE away?

So I emailed Pastor Don and asked him how to go about it, and he came back saying that he would donate two books in memory of his grandson who was born still a few months ago! :) How amazing is that!?!


I received the books in the mail yesterday, just in time for the 100th post!


I want to make sure that you all understand that this book is not just pertaining to death. It could be any "bitter cup" that you are facing in your life. :) Just take the book, read it, and apply it to your situation... I promise that if you are open, then you will be blessed!


Here's what you do. It's really simple. 1) Follow Me :), 2) Comment and tell me what your favorite Bible verse is, and why it is special to you, and 3) Pray for me.


I'll leave this open until Friday, then I will announce the winners. As I said, I have two copies...and they have both been signed by the author, Dr. Don Woodard.


I want to take a second and say a big thank you to Pastor Don for donating these books in memory of his precious little grandson. :) What a blessing your book has been to my life/healing, and I can't wait to share it with others!!!


Let the comments begin...

Congratulations on your 100th post!!! And on your first give a way. Its very generous! 1 Corinthians 13 is a very popular verse, but I love it and have kept it close to my heart since I first knew about it. I try to live my life loving that way, but it is difficult at times. I believe Love is God's greatest gift to us all!

love and prayers

that does sound like a very generous thing that the pastor did in donating these books.

I am praying for you and following your blog :)

I have a lot of favorite Bible verses, but I think I already shared this one on your blog, but I'll share it again

Jeremiah 32:27 "I am the Lord, the God of all mankind, is anything too hard for me?"

I like it because nothing is too hard for God. He is in control; there is nothing he cannot do. He has all covered. He knows our past, our present, our future. He is in control. We just need to trust in him :)

great giveaway by the way :)

Joshua 24:15- "And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD."

I have always loved this verse because it reminds me that no matter what, I choose the Lord! Always praying for you my love! :)

My favorite verse is Matthew 17:20"I tell you the truth, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there' and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you."

Prayers sent! I really really want to read this book! *HUGS*

Congrats on your 100th post. I'm so behind kids and hubby leaving for a short trip. I would have to said the 23rd Psalm. It always seems to calm me and I can just picture the Lord saying it.
Great giveaway !!
