Staying emotionally, spiritually and intellectually full takes concentrated action. My sunroom is my working space (it also doubles as our dining room). It’s a great place to write, read and reflect.
The "sunroom" on a rainy morning - the lit candles help cheer me up!
Here’s what I’m reading to fill the well:
The Amplified Bible - this is my favorite, but I do read the NIV and NKJV. Most references on this website are from the NIV and NKJV.

Desire – by John Eldredge. ”The Journey we must take to Find the Life God Offers.”
Can we find a life filled with passion, without being overwhelmed by it? … we discover that God is the author of our deepest desires. He has given us desire, and he loves to fulfill our hearts’ desires. For as the Psalms declare, “Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart” (37:4).
Emotionally Healthy Spirituality – by Peter Scazzero. This book was recommended by a blogger – unfortunately I CAN NOT remember who and on which blog I read about it! (sigh) This is the down-side of reading a lot of blogs…
September Songs – by Maggie Scarf. ”The Good News About Marriage in the Later Years.”
Hope – A Holy Promise by Oswald Chambers -
He Said, She Said, I Said by Barbara J. Peters
