Book Review - AMAZING LOVE

Amazing Love

Author: K. Dawn Byrd

K. Dawn Byrd is an author of inspirational romance. When she was asked why she writes, she says, "For the simple joy of putting words on the page!"

"Amazing Love" is a novel by author K. Dawn Byrd that is a great read; it is in the form of a digital book in length of 249 pages. It is about a pastor name Gabe Knight that lives in a small coastal town who falls in love with Dee Dillow who hired him to remodel an estate she's inherited from her aunt. He hears God in a small still voice telling him to marry Dee Dillow. But is it really God telling him that since he has found out that she was one of the highest paid call girls in the state of Nevada and is part-owner of the brothel, after much questioning him and Dee marry. God tells him to love her unconditionally but can he after he finds out she betrayed him. He realizes what love is and why God can love us unconditionally after almost losing her. This book is similar to the story of Hosea and Gomer from the Bible. 

I really enjoyed this book and would recommend it to anyone that is looking for that novel that keeps you on your seat. This book kept me reading late into the night wondering what was going to happen next. You can find this book on Amazon.com for the price of $4.99.

Book Review - Not Just A Hearer But A Doer Volume One

Not Just A Hearer But A Doer
Volume One

By Author Yolanda Shanks

As I sat reading this book "Not Just A Hearer But A Doer" Volume One written by Yolanda Shanks I was wondering what she meant by the title, wasn't this a deliberately living life devotional study. The devotional contains 31 days of the author's topics and her personal message. Then she has the observations which include a scripture, then the background of that scripture. Then she includes the interpretation and Application of how to apply the scripture. She also includes Additional Memory Scriptures and a space of where you can personalize the scripture text. This devotional will get you to ponder on it throughout your day.

After reading this devotional study I understood what Yolanda meant by the title "Not Just A Hearer But A Doer" Volume One. Yolanda was saying that we sit in the pews and sing the songs and recite Scripture-Scripture we know by heart, but do we do what we have read in the Scripture or sing in the songs? A lot of times we don't we just listen and that is it, this devotional will get you to not only think about what she discusses but get you to act on it. We need to be more than just the Hearer, God wants us to be a Doer also. I recommend this book to anyone that not only enjoys doing devotionals but wants to put what is spoken into action not just being a hearer.

The author Yolanda Shanks is a wife, mother, and grandmother, she is a Texas native where she lives with her Husband in Houston. She is the award-winning author of Destined to Live. She writes books that uplift and encourage readers to live life to its fullest. Yolanda is also a speaker and is available to speak to your church, school, or civic group.

RAMBLINGS from the SHOWER (Book Review)

RAMBLINGS from the SHOWER

By Faye Bryant

RAMBLINGS from the SHOWER by author Faye Bryant is a book that will get you to think about your conversation with God and when we do most of the talking we need to be still to hear his voice. Faye did just that in this book while in the shower she heard from God. While reading through the Bible, she would ask questions then head off to the shower. She said that with all the thinking/praying time, that by the time she got out of the shower she would have the answer. The insight of some of the questions that were answered for her is ones that we most wonder about and these are the ones she shared. She not only lets you know what the questions were that she had asked, but she also puts the answered and the scripture verses that God had directed her too. Faye wrote this book about things we have all gone through in life integrity, abuse, grief, putting people on pedestals and other things that we all see in our everyday life; she is speaking to us as if we are sitting there next to her.  I would recommend this book for anyone who is looking for some answers that you haven’t found, or if you just want a good book to read.

Faye Bryant is not only an author, and Blogger but she is also Wife, Mother, Step-mother, and Grandmother. Faye was born in Florida and lived there until age 25 then she moved to Tennessee where she has been ever since. Faye serves at the Church of Cove in Townsend as the Ministry Assistant and Communications director; she also owns her own business as a scopist, where she loves to work from her home office. She says just ask and she’ll explain that one.

I really enjoyed reading this book because it talked about her life and how she dealt with some challenges she has faced. It also gave some insight of some things I always wondered. There were so many eye opening things for me that I was surprised on some of them, for instance she states “That happiness dwells all around us. Sometimes we find it then lose it, because we don’t choose to hang onto it or we think it requires something or someone else. We choose our focus, and so many times, we choose poorly.”  I have to agree on this one, I have not only experience this one but seen so many people including my own children experience this. I was so blessed by the words Faye spoke and I think you will too. To see other things she has spoken about in her book you have to read this book.  You can purchase her book at Amazon and Barnes & Noble.

Book Review of Prayer Never Fails Especially During Trials

Prayer Never Fails Especially During Trials

By: Berney K. dorton

I had the privilege to read the book “Prayer Never Fails Especially During Trials” written by Berney K. Dorton. The book emphasizes the spiritual strength and fortitude required to pray consistently. Berney vividly describes the tragic loss of her love ones, caring for her sick child while dealing with her own personal health issues. Berney’s faith and prayers helped her cope with the ordeals in her daily life.  

I really enjoyed reading this book not only do you get to experience the author’s personal loss of her love ones but how her faith and prayers helped her to cope with them, she even refers to Scriptures that speaks of those trials. There were some things that she spoke about in her book that just stuck with me, like “Walk forward in faith instead of backwards in fear”, another one she said was “When we become serious about our Father’s business, He will become serious about our problems”. It just makes you sit and think about these and how they will really help me in my walk of faith and my prayer life. I would recommend this book to anyone interested in learning how to strengthen your faith and how to prayer fervently. You can find this book on amazon.com for the price of $13.95.

ShapelyGirl Final Post

I have had the privilege this past month to use the ShapelyGirl “Walking Fit and Fabulous” workout DVD. Debra Mazda and her Shapely Girl Team really did a wonderful job in keeping me motivated; I really enjoyed this workout DVD. Debra Mazda mentions in her videos that no matter what size you are- even if you’ve never worked out before – get off that couch and move. At the age of 21 Debra weighed 300+ pounds, was in an abusive relationship, having chronic depression and high blood pressure she took one simple step by joining a health club. While moving her body she improved what she ate. Debra realized that she could inspire other women; she sought the credentials to become a teacher and trainer. She earned a BS in Human Movement and a M.Ed. in Sports Psychology at Temple University. Debra created ShapelyGirl Fitness a motivational fitness program that includes workout DVD’s, inspirational CD’s and access to an online community (www.debramazda.com).

When I started the Walking Fit and Fabulous workout I weighed 191.5 pounds I have lost down to 187. My weight goes up and down also due to having thyroid issues. I would recommend this DVD if you are looking to start a new workout, Debra and her Shapely Girl team will keep you motivated. You can find the Walking Fit and Fabulous for $14.95 along with her other products at https://www.debramazda.com/catalog/index.php.
