Here is my reading log for the week: Thursday night I read my Beth Moore book Get Out of That Pit for 45 minutes before I went to bed and answered the Reflection Questions in the back of the book for Chapter 2. I really liked Chapter because it deals with being put in a pit innocently through what difficulty is dealt you in life. On Friday my cousin and I got together for an hour to discuss what we had read. This weekend I had the chance to flip through some magazines for a two hours while my car was being worked on at the shop. I had a stack of Real Simple magazines that I had not had a chance to even read. It was odd that I actually sat and read magazines for that long. I almost felt guilty and knew that I had other things to do, but luckily I ended up having a few extra hours without a vehicle and took my magazines with me. Real Simple is one of my favorite magazines and it may sound odd, but it soothes me because of its simplicity and layout. It isn't cluttered with ads, it is just as the title states...."REAL SIMPLE".
On Sunday I had the chance to start on Chapter 3 of my Beth Moore book and get a head start before going to bed.
So my log for the week is
Tue Oct 18-45 minutes
Sat Oct 22-2 hours
Sun Oct 23-45 minutes

Beth Moore Rocks
For my Reading Class at Southwestern College, we are required pleasure read for 90 minutes a week, log our time and blog about our weely read. Since I am an insanely busy mom of 3 and full time student, I have had to make time to read and make sure I wisely choose what I am reading and that I get alot from it. So....I have chosen a book by one of my favorite authors, Beth Moore and am currently reading her book, Get Out of That Pit. I have been meeting with my cousin weekly to discuss what we have learned from this book and how it applies to our lives and the tools we take from it. Recently I went through a very painful divorce and have sought much comfort in my faith. This book has opened my eyes and was just the thing I needed to pick up for closure to a huge chapter in my life. I started reading Get Out...On October 2nd and read the beginning through Chapter One and then completed the Discovery Questions for the Chapter found in the back of the book. On Friday the 7th, my cousin and I got together for prayer and reflection over what we had read. This isn't your typical self help feel good book, this is nitty gritty, evaluate your life, type of talk that isn't always pleasant to visit. I highly recommend this for everyone!
