A few weeks ago I finished this beautiful book by Ruth Chou Simons. She is a lovely Christian writer and artist. She has written several other books one that I read several months ago "When Stivings Cease". As a Wall Street Journal best selling author her words and art resonate with so many others. What was so amazing about this book is how she showcases the wildflowers with her writing.
She addresses many of the human challenges we all face in our daily walk. Just a few to mentioned are being overwhelmed, learning to wait, being disillusioned, when you can't turn back the clock, when one grieves, and the brokenness of the world. Each chapter is illustrated with a certain wildflower that is described and depicted.
For all of those who need a pick me up from the winter weather - highly recommend this book.
On another note...our snow is melting and we are warming up this week. Yeah!I am ready for spring - how about you?
Many of us have certainly had too much snow!
Take care and have a blessed week.

We have snow today, Debbie, but so far it is a light snow. Forecast predicts more snow during the week. And your snow is easing up and you're getting some sunshine. Your pink roses are beautiful. Your book sounds really good, and something to read on these wintery days when we're snuggling cozy at home. Have a wonderful February week, Debbie. And thank you for all your sweet posts.
ReplyDeleteSpring is bearing down on us here this week with much warmer temperatures. Our daffodils are loving it! Thanks for the recommendation of this book, too. Blessings always, Debbie!
ReplyDeleteThank you for the book recommendation. Sounds like the perfect book to read right now. Winter half over, isn’t half enough.

Dear Debbie, the book is lovely and your photos are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI just love that color pink in the roses. GORGEOUS. You really did like that book! Thanks for the recommendation. I am also glad that the snow is melting. Hope you won't get too much more snow. Spring is hitting Georgia. We had a couple cold weeks, and now we are warming up.
ReplyDeleteI am definitley ready for spring. Those roses are so pretty
ReplyDeleteThat sounds and looks like a lovely book! Good that the snow is slowly melting. Temperatures here are just above zero celsius, but chilly. But we're heading towards spring, for sure!
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like a book for these times! Our snow is far from melting yet. Enjoy the remainder of the week,
ReplyDeleteI am SO ready for Spring!
ReplyDeleteStay warm friend!

I have 2 of her books. I didn't know about this one-I will look for it. We are getting up to 50degrees today! Yay!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful book ~ a great recommendation. It has felt quite spring-like here the past few days. I love going out without a heavy coat.
ReplyDeleteThat book sounds really interesting and enjoyable; I'm making a note of it.
ReplyDeleteThe weather there is also snowy, just like here—snowy and very rainy, unlike anything we've seen in years.
Regards.
The book looks and sounds great. Our forecast, and yours sounds like another snowstorm is on the way. It was just starting to get a little warmer. I'm not looking forward to more snow. Stay safe down there and have a good weekend.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful book, and sounds like it is as beautiful inside as it is outside. I'm ready for spring, but not summer--hope we get a bit more cool weather before we reenter the furnace :)
