The Joys of Reading on a Cold, Snowy Day

So... I live in the south, and because of the crazy weather that has left us cold, snowy, and completely shut down, I got almost a whole week out of school. I missed 3 days in a row. and then we had a weekend. So I've just spent 5 consecutive days not in school. Anyway, because we had no school, and it wasn't planned that way, I got some extra time, that my teachers hadn't expected I would have, so no extra school work was planned. So I had free time, which is almost a foreign concept to me now. But because of this free time, I got to sit down and read this series of books that I haven't gotten to read since I was a freshman. It's a great series by Donita K. Paul. I don't exactly know what the series is called, but the first book is called DragonSpell. It's really an excellent truth. Anyway, in each of the five books, Ms. Paul explores concepts that are really crucial to our Christian faith. It's a really excellent series of Christian Fantasy for Young Adults, but I would recommend it to anyone. The message is simple but clear. It gives a new insight into what it is that I claim as my religion. Anyway, when I read these books again, God really just spoke to me through some of the conversations people had. I can't really explain it, and there were a lot of these moments, but I really just heard God in them this past week.

Anyway, since I mentioned her books, Donita K. Paul's website is linked here: http://www.donitakpaul.com/

Oh, and the series I mentioned, it's apparently called the DragonKeeper Series. Which makes sense, if you read the first couple books. Anyway, I would recommend it!!

Love, Becca :)
