Weekend Perusal

April 25, 2014 by Aliesha

Hey, look! I haven’t killed my succulents yet!

This week I’ve been enjoying reading these posts, and I thought perhaps you would as well!

The Oxen Are In: “When talking about homemaking, Christian women often refer to the fact that God loves order. He created an ordered world. This is so true, and I love it. This is why I work every day to have an ordered home. But then I look outside my house and laugh – because God also created places where you have a storm of natural messes….”

Getting Through the Dry Seasons: “I am always so encouraged when I read this passage to realize that in the midst of one of the hardest seasons of David’s life he encouraged or strengthened himself in the Lord. What a reminder that in the hardest times in life that we must turn to the Lord and to His Word for strength to face what lies ahead….”

You Can’t Claim a Promise: “A promise isn’t a thing; it’s an expression of something greater. When God uttered promises in Scripture He wasn’t giving us a buffet of blankies, Band-Aids, and silver bullets. He was showing us His character….”

As far as books, here are a few that I’ve read recently or I’m reading currently:

Hospitality: The Duty of the Christian Home by Kathy @ Teaching Good Things
101 Independent Activities for Toddlers and Preschoolers by MaryEllen @ Imperfect Homemaker
No Cook Freezer Meals by Kelly @ New Leaf Wellness
Real Food on a Real Budget: How to Eat Healthy for Less by Stephanie @ Keeper of the Home

Just those ebooks alone would have cost me over $34, but I got them as part of my Ultimate Homemaking Bundle (which includes over 80 resources + bonuses and costs less than $30!).  The sale only lasts until Monday, so buy a bundle before you miss your opportunity!  Read my big post about it here.

Have a great weekend!

Disclosure: I have included affiliate links in this post.  If you choose to buy the bundle using my links, it will help support our family and this blog. Read the fine print about this bundle and read the answers to frequently asked questions about the bundle.
