Glory Days is the first book by Lucado that I read. He is an amazing author with a gift from God to encourage believers based on biblical scripture that we can apply to our daily life. One thing I was able to clearly see was that even in Old Testament times, the battle was spiritual. You can't fight an impossible (not impossible for God) physical battle without fighting the same battle in your mind.
so-so(1989) After the rapture, the dead rise from their graves. Left-behind sinners ponder the state of their souls while battling a zombie horde. I love the idea of mining Christian mythology for horror material -- especially as here when the author has no evangelistic agenda -- but like many another zombie novel this gets bogged down in a repetitive series of violent gross-out set pieces. Still it's fun enough to finish, and just right for the season
pickIs it still Monday?
I lose track of days since they mostly mean little to me. I get up. I try to finish ARCs. I try not to eat. I try to drink Pedialyte & eat disgusting green/sweet baby food pouches to eat more greens. Take numerous medications on schedule. That‘s my life.
I use to hoard rosaries. Or *collect* rosaries. I‘ve no idea where they‘ve gone. I would assume I brought them from Iowa, somewhere. Once you stop praying with them, ? ⏬
My daughter and I binged Sister Wives last year when she and my granddaughter were living with us. It was a great nightly ritual for us to unwind together after busy days. Since Christine's book just came out, I figured I'd start at the beginning before reading it.
I‘ve also decided to order this Bible from Guideposts. I have a study bible I read when I was a teenage girl and I read all of it from the beginning to the end but I like the idea of this being read every day and that it says it reads like an epic novel. I haven‘t ever read a daily Bible before. How will I find the time to read this and other books that I want to read? I don‘t want to only read this. I want to read other things too.
This is a haiku written while being tired so it‘s a tired haiku. I‘m gonna go to sleep now. 😴💤🥱
I had a good day today but I‘m so tired
I‘ve been a zombie all day
I didn‘t sleep well last night because I knew I would be going to lunch with my family today to celebrate our July birthdays
I don‘t sleep well the night before when I know I have plans the next day
I‘m looking forward to sleeping in late on Sunday

This was a fascinating book on money from the Christian view, it is a map on how to save up money, pay off debts, and invest wisely. The Bible is quoted throughout the book, I learned there‘s 2,350 verses on how to handle money and possessions. Jesus Christ talked about money than almost any other subject. He knew money would be a challenge for all of us, and He cared enough to show us how to handle it wisely.
