To be Present

Fast.  Available.

Two words that describe our time

And the pressure to think quickly, respond quickly. 

Know within a Google Search.

But what of reflection?

Of pausing and living.

And through time and consideration

Gaining more than knowledge.

Slow.  Present.

Two words that describe our need

To drink deeply.  Live freely.  To Rest

To Run.  To Look and see.  To Be.

And from that time to find

Peace in beauty

Joy in friendship
And communion with God.

Book Review- The Maid of Fouborne Hall

I enjoyed reading this book.  It's a great option for a beach read or a plane trip and an enjoyable adventure that will keep the pages turning.

There are twists and turns and conflict, it’s not the kind that is dark or especially stressful to the reader. 

The resolution is predictable but still enjoyable.  Though I feel the ending could have been a bit stronger to give a more satisfying conclusion.

Still this is a light, fun read  that I recommend for anyone who likes Historical Christian Romance.
