Cats in Paris: Review

I love cats. I love coloring. I love the fact that coloring books for adults have become this huge thing in the last year. Combine two of my favorite things and I am in heaven. There were lots of different pictures to color in this book. All different kinds of cats. So this will take me quite some time to color...(please see one example - not completely finished - below...) I also like how some of them are simple, like the one I tested because you can get really elaborate with the color schemes and create your own backgrounds.

Jesus Today: Review

Jesus Today: Devotions for Kids is about Jesus and His amazing Love for you. It's also a book about hope. Some kids may think that hoping is just wishful thinking. But the hope Jesus offers you is something you can hold on to - knowing it will never let you down. Because Jesus will never let you down! No matter what is happening - whether you are happy, scared, angry, or sad - God is always in control, and He is always good.

That was an excerpt from the Introduction of Jesus Today. This book is supposed to be be for kids, but as a 30-something year old, I enjoyed reading through each of the devotions myself. Sometimes, things just need to be spelled out in the most simplest ways. A way that a child can understand. Some things in the Bible are already difficult to understand, let alone trying to understand it from an adult point of view. The devotions are short, sweet, and provide just enough Bible verses to remind us as a Child of God that He is always there.

There are 150 devotions, each very short. Each devotion has approximately 3-4 versus to show us God promises. There is also a Scripture text in the back of the book, and a cute little blue ribbon to mark your page.

I think this would be a great book to read with a child at the end of the day, for bedtime devotions. Even as an adult, I'm thinking about keeping it at my nightstand for nightly bedtime prayer.
