Love Overload

I love books and I have been so fortunate to be a book-reviewing-blogger!

Here are 3 books for your Valentine's Day consideration.

1) I Do Again by Cheryl and Jeff Scruggs This book details the fascinating real-life story of a couple whose relationship seemed shattered beyond all hope until a spiritual awakening led them to reconsider their definitions of “happily ever after.” A riveting account of the power of prayer and redemption, this remarkable book offers renewed hope for even the most troubled marriages—and reveals why the rewards of restoration are well worth the wait.

2) Love As A Way Of Life ~ Devotional Book - by Dr. Gary Chapman I have the other books in this series and it is a favorite to quote in sessions with couples. I just really feel LOVE is the component we often forget in many areas of our lives. In his book Love As a Way of Life, best-selling author Gary Chapman shows readers how to cultivate a new lifestyle built around the seven characteristics of authentic love. Now in a companion devotional, he provides ninety inspirational readings to help Christians consistently live out the characteristics of love in every relationship.

3) For Couples Only Box Set by Shaunti and Jeff Feldhahn

I have enjoyed this series of books as well. Very useful way to help people (and myself) see things from the other gender's perspective.

Now together in the For Couples Only boxed set, these books provide the perfect resource to help you understand what you never knew about the woman or man in your life. Each volume is based on input from more than a thousand members of the opposite sex—including an unprecedented nationwide survey and hundreds of personal interviews. This innovative approach yields candid and surprising answers about everything you don’t “get” about your significant other—even what that person deeply wishes you knew.

allow light to enter

open doors

ask in faith for blessing that No One hears

beg for solace

do all in spite of injury

serve the less

add a candle to the shadows

all in an effort

to wake up to
