Self knowledge & application

The last few chapters helped me to realize I was just as wrong about my 7 siblings as both sisters were misguided about each other. They also helped me to realize how my son feels (as an only child) about the children I had in my home daycare. It goes to prove we’re never too old to learn or change. Though we may show our children love & provision, they need to HEAR “I love you” several times a day no matter how old they are. Thank you for yielding to Gods will to write this book‼️😃🎶

How attitude affected lives

Am glad she was able to admit her attitudes were not based on God's truth but we're keeping her from gratitude and joy

Bluebird and the Sparrow

Interesting story of a sister's image of herself in comparison to her younger sister and in her relationship to God

Always a Blessing

I listen to Janette Oke books most often when I walk. Entertaining and the Spiritual truths have many times especially spoken into a confusing circumstance in my life. The story of Berta, her personal story and growth was a blessing and gave perspective and understanding for my own life.
