Follow me as I follow Jesus

Lend me thine eyes…read these

It hit me two weeks ago that as a freshly minted college grad I no longer have to read text books. Like, ever again (praise and raise). Rather, I can read whatever I want for the rest of my life. Oh, hey 78 unread books on my shelf. Get in my hands. And may the truth of God’s Word in the pages get in my heart and forever stay.

“I declare after all there is no enjoyment like reading! How much sooner one tires of any thing than of a book! — When I have a house of my own, I shall be miserable if I have not an excellent library.” 
― Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice

I’ve already read a few books this year, but I’ve been reading more blogs lately and wow. God has seriously blessed us with the gift of blogs and being able to read and grow from so many other believers.

Here are a few stellar articles that I have particularly enjoyed this week:

Ten Lepers – Matt Hodges

Theology and Doxology – Gerrit Scott Dawson

Losing Cash – Flint Tribe

Dear Guys – Cole Ryan

How to be the Parent You Want to be: 40 Things Every Child Must Know Before Leaving Home – Ann Voskamp

Candid Desires – Courtney Veasey

Tales of the Ordinary – Sarah

So take a break from the endless running around (like you’re doing now if you’re reading this) and go, click, read–be poured into so that you may pour into others.
