Stress Eater Diet - Book Tour

This book is packed with great practical and helpful information on getting yourself into a healthier new you. I love the focus of this book because it examines stress eating and how much that can impact you if you are not careful about it. Let's just be real honest here, we live in a stress-filled world. How do we handle that stress? Do you think you are a stress eater? Find out by taking the quiz here.

Surprised by the results? I was. I had to own that I am indeed a stress eater and with that knowledge I can now do something about it. The great thing about this book is it is divided into four practical sections that are all there to aid in the process of better stress management. Each section is filled with great advice also on how to not be a stress eater. Unlike other books I have read in the past this one gives you a plan that you can easily follow. I now know what I have to do. It is a process. If you struggle with this in your life then you can get a copy of the book here.

Leading Women Who Wound - Book Review

This book is an incredible resource. I believe it should be a required read for anyone leading women in ministry. I am a woman who has been severely wounded by others in the church. If I was given this book to read beforehand, it would have better prepared me for the task and ministry God had at hand. Unfortunately I had to learn many lessons the hard way.

This book was a breath of fresh air. Dealing with conflict in the church is such an important subject but more specifically conflict among women. God desires unity of the body of Christ. Because we women are so relational there is so much potential for us to fall into misunderstandings.

This book was a healing component to my journey. It opened my eyes to things that may have been going on behind the scenes in the conflicts I encountered. It walks through the appropriate way to Biblically solve conflict. It also addresses areas that can be handled incorrectly opening my eyes to my errors. God has given us a ministry of reconciliation and it is our job to be peace makers in ministry. In unity we are strong. This book addresses all of these key areas. Ladies if you are at all interested in ministry can I plead with you to read this book. It will help so much. Seriously if you were serving on my ministry team I would be buying it for you. It is so worth the read.

I am posting over here today. Check out Heart of the Matter Online.

The Vertical Life

Hey y'all! I am now vertical and it is such an amazing privilege. How often we take life for granted. The little things like health, cleaning our house, cooking, driving, etc. Most days most of us would not give those regular activities a second thought. This past week I have had much time to think and be still. I am so thankful for the little things that I can do. Thanks so much for all your prayers and remember to be thankful in all things!

Being Still Part Three - A Psalm

More bed rest. More down time. Several days with the hopes of this spot properly closing up...Lumbar Puncture Gone Wrong A Psalm by Angela. :)

I am in a house filled with people yet feel so alone.
Waiting is hard. Being still harder. Time goes by
Be my everything Lord so I won't sit and cry.
Helpless to do anything. If I do it prolongs this
I am not sick yet treated as my health is amiss.
Lonely I feel. Perfect functioning yet no getting up
Doesn't anyone understand the heaviness of this cup?
I will hold on to God for He is always with me
He is here to keep me company yet His face I do not see
I trust with quiet confidence after all He is my prince,
my King, my Everything. Thank You Jesus. Thank You Lord.
I appreciate the quiet. I do not want to fight it. Lord, hold me close
Help this time be some I make the most of. Life is fast. Far gone is
the past. Enjoy each moment, it will be gone before you know it.

Journey of a Strong-Willed Child - Book Review

This was a great book for me personally to read. I have a strong-willed child. I wonder how many of you out there do as well? Whether you have one or not, it is probably safe to say you have been in contact with one. They are all around us. We need to know how to interact effectively with the strong-willed.

This book gives great insight into the mind and thinking pattern of the strong-willed child. It is unique in its presentation because the author has experienced life with a strong-willed child the whole way through. She uses practical examples all through different stages of life along with tips that a parent can use. Also, another interesting addition is the strong-willed child referenced but now grown adds his input as well. He can confirm what he was actually thinking and what was going on in his mind. This was extremely helpful to me because I just want to get into my child's head and figure out why she makes things so very hard. Aaron helps us to understand.

One more thing I loved about this book was that not only did mom and son add input but it was a family project. The father also added his input which is so important on this journey of raising children. He was an active force in the child-rearing as well and he shared his input into that as well. It is a wonderful family effort and a great read for anyone desiring to understand the strong-willed child.
