Broken Things to Mend


I really liked this book. It wasn't quite what I was expecting, but I still loved it. Each chapter was like a short talk on different subjects. I thought about putting a couple of favorite quotes on here, but I liked so many that it would end up being a quote from every chapter and that's getting kind of ridiculous. I just felt really inspired after reading this book & it made me want to do better.
Ok, I found one quote that seemed to hit me pretty hard.
"God expects you to have enough faith and determination and enough trust in Him to keep moving, keep living, keep rejoicing. In fact, He expects you not simply to face the future (that sounds pretty grim and stoic); He expects you to embrace and shape the future - to love it and rejoice in it and delight in your opportunities."
I would definitely recommend this book.

Okay, totally love the teddy bear, had no idea you were such good friends with Mikelle, and I've also heard that Holland's book is a good one. Love your blog! Have fun on your vaca this weekend!
