WHAT'S TRENDING TODAY? THE 10 YEAR REFLECTION CHALLENGE:

I really did not want to participate in this REFLECTION CHALLENGE TREND, but the idea of the trend, got me thinking, dare I say reflecting on the past decade of this my one life. 

Twenty-sixteen was an extremely difficult year for me. 

I lived mostly divided from my family (my only son and my husband). My daughter was a full time wife, with no children at this point in time.

The lack of transportation had me in the school of jumping train tracks. 

But, it was also the year I found that BIBLE, that vintage BIBLE which awed, astounded and arrested me, all in one day! It awed me, because I had never seen anything like it before! The Biblical Helps confined within the mass produced and published (Chicago) in 1926 vintage Bible completely astounded me! And, the design and publishing possibilities simply arrested me. There I was sleeping on a sofa in a rented room: awed astounded and arrested by the actual physical WORD OF THE LORD! Today, thankfully, I have in my possession, two copies of this amazing vintage text, one copy was published primarily for what used to be called Sunday School and the other is what I would call a Read and Carry Bible!

Please know: I am speaking of being under SPIRITUAL ARREST, not an actual physical arrest as in a county jail. 

Sleeping on a comfy sofa in a rented room: awed, astounded and arrested the Good Lord allowed me to self published my third book and my first write in journal in the year of Twenty-sixteen titled: The One and Only Jesus: 365 Day Daily Journal! 

I'm super THANKFUL to say, we (keywordbiblestudies) now have fourteen products in this product line and I'm also super excited to see them eventually, all loaded on their website, whenever the Good Lord permits!

I now also realize, sleeping on a comfy sofa in a rented room: awed, astounded and arrested, the Good Lord placed before me an OPEN DOOR, and an OPEN DOOR, I not only prayed for but photographed!

Thanks to the Lord and The ten year reflection challenge trend: I'm reminded of an open door!

Soli Deo gloria
