From Blog to Book!

   About a year ago I had written a post about using our time and talents for God, and of my desire to write a couple of books. Well I have those mentioned books finished and successfully self published, and all ready for purchase. My book on Psalms called Beautiful Psalms I have already talked about it here earlier this summer.

    But now I am very happy to announce my second book here!! The title is, As For Me and My House. It is written from all my years of posts here on my blog, well about half of the years anyway, the other half will come out in Volume Two which I am in the process of working on now. Yes, I am supper excited about this book written form my blog. If you have been enjoying and following my blog over the years, or even just recently came across it, I am sure will enjoy the book form of the blog. All the posts are right there conveniently in a book to read when ever and how ever you want, as often as you want! You can read one post a day more like a devotional, or several a day!! It is up to you.

   Note though that I did not include every post. Like for instance the ones that were just about family news and happenings, or gardening and such. And I didn't include any of the pictures from the blog either. But I do have an up to date family photo of us in the back of the book on the page about the Author. So you will be able to enjoy that. Also in the back I included my favorite resources that have been a help and blessing to me as a wife and mother over the years.

   Also I did some revising and editing of certain posts as needed to work better and sound better in the book. So if you read a post in the book, and then look for it here on the blog it may be worded some different. Also I have omitted certain posts that didn't seem as edifying as I thought they were when I first wrote them.

I chose the title for the book, As For Me and MY House, to better represent the book for what it is, because that is really what all these blog posts are about. It is about my journey as a wife and mother, and how we serve the Lord in our home. As for me and my house we will serve the Lord, and we will share that great news, our believes, and our faith and joy we have from that walk with the Lord with others!! But the title didn't really come from me, there is no way I could not have thought of that on my own. I had been praying about the title, and that is when that verse came to mind. And I was like, "Wow, what a wonderful title that will make!" God gets the glory for that!

  As For Me and MY House, covers many topics such as: mothering and homeschooling issues, my thoughts and believes on many different things, verses that I love on different topics, things we have been dealing with as a family, praise poems I have written to God, and much more. Fellow wives and mothers should find it encouraging, inspiring, and challenging as you too walk with God!! And if you like this book, then be and sure to keep an out look for the up-coming volume two! Volume two will contain some of the very latest blog posts with new ones coming, as well as the older ones from this blog as well. It will contain a new and up-dated list of my favorite and helpful resources, as well as an up-dated family picture of us which should contain our newest baby. I hope to have this book completed and ready to release shortly after the new year, Lord Willing.

  Well I hope you check out these books, purchase, and enjoy them! And please tell all your friends all about them as well!

  P.S. Also in my near future writing projects I have a strong desire to write a Christian fiction. It will be a few short stories in one book. And the sole purpose of those stories will be to encourage, inspire, and challenge one in their walk with God. It will be geared to youth and young adult. I want it to be entertaining to read as well of course, or how else is one to be keep reading at the book and not tossing it out!! Anyway, Lord Willing I plan to get writing on this soon.
