Hinds' Feet on High Places


I've heard it said multiple times that life is a journey.  It's a journey of highs and lows, ups and downs, happy, and sad, good and bad.  There are seasons of plenty and seasons that leave you downright exhausted.  As a believer in Jesus, there is always the firm foundation of the Bible to go back to and reference.  Sometimes I forget about this solid ground and try to get through life all by myself.  But this is never the case for Christians.  I am thankful for books like Hind's Feet on High Places to remind me of the fact that I need to rely on God.  

The original book was printed in 1975, and I know my mom owned a copy of it back in the day.  This new updated book is part story and part journal with beautiful artwork throughout.  It also includes focal scripture verses that can be colored.  

"The Lord God is my strength, and he will make my feet like hinds' feet, and he will make me to walk upon mine high places."  Habakkuk 3:19
~This verse is the premise of the story told in the book.

I received a copy of this book in exchange for my review.  Opinions are mine."

GOD GAVE US FAMILY




I am always looking for good book to read to my kids.  We are by no means a "traditional family".  My husband had a 6 year old daughter from a previous marriage, when I met him.  After we were married, I had one biological son.  Then after years of trying to have more children, we adopted twins!  So the way our family was formed is very different.  Just like every family.  Just because we are different, doesn't mean we are loved any less by the creator of us all!  

This book about celebrating differences is great for any kid no matter what kind of situation they are in.  I think the more our kids are exposed to these ideas, the cliches and stigmas are lessened.  I want my kids to LOVE no matter what.  Love wins every time!!

"WE NEED TO LOVE THE FAMILY GOD GAVE US!"  {AMEN!!!}
