Honiara Woman's Daybook



Just for today...Monday, April 20

On my bookshelf..."Making Peace With Change: Navigating Life's Messy Transitions With Honesty and Grace" by Gina Brenna Butz.  Although the book is written specifically to cross cultural workers, I think most people on the planet currently feel like life is in transition.  I highly recommend this book!  I've been slowly chewing my way through for the last couple of months.

Outside my window...this is my view when I mosey home each morning from my "walky talky" with the hubby .  You can't tell that the gray, flat ocean is just behind those trees or that the house where we are currently living is just on the right on top of the ridge.  We truly live in a beautiful place.



Tickling my eardrums..."Vermeer: Art and Music of His Times".  Katherine and I are in the 1600s for school, and I LOVE this series of music!!!  If you have the hard copy of the CD, the liner includes lovely art as well as information about the connections between the art and music.  For anybody who likes to see how the tapestry of history weaves together, you need this in your life.

I am wearing...my new favorite socks!  They are so soft and comfy for exercise (but it's too hot to wear them any other time).


Pondering these words..."It is a gift to be brought to this place, where God knocks down our house of cards, where we are at the end of our resources.  Beyond our resources, really.  God doesn't take us to places of need so we can prove how strong we are; He takes us through them so we can discover greater depths of His strength."  ~Gina Brenna Butz
