The Friday Five: Blog Love

By Wanda

Welcome to another edition of The Friday Five, where I share five interesting reads that have encouraged, enlightened, or impacted me in some way during my week.

  • Do you have a young lady in your life and you’re looking for creative ways to encourage her? Check out Kaitlyn’s article at {in}Courage: How to Love Us Well {Just Be You}.
  • Vanessa at Her Heart Proclaims shares one of the nicest letters I’ve read in her post, An Open Letter to My Gay Friends.
  • Robin poses an interesting question in her post, Advice for Life, at A Deeper Story. She asks, If you could choose one piece of advice for your children to remember the rest of their lives, what would it be?
  • Have you heard the news about Pam’s new book release, A to Z Devotions for Writers available now at CrossLink? Her book was inspired from Arlee Bird’s A-Z blog challenge. 
  • Dianna Hobbs at Empowering Every Day Women shares a beautiful story of how God used her encounter with a stranger and her obedience in her post titled, God Is Going to Answer Your Prayer.

Now is your turn to share. What great reads have you come across this week?

    I can’t remember who, but I read two today where they talked about reading and relying on God’s promise of love in the Bible.
    And Sia McKye’s Over Coffee had a guest who’d been through a lot and still kept her faith in God. Very powerful.

    I really love the wisdom and compassion
    in the woman’s letter to her gay friends
    ….this has been on my heart so weighty
    to write my own response to the issue
    and I really love how she said what needed to be said
    with kindness….not throwing around a lot of scripture
    and keeping it relational. Very well done.
    I’m reading “Safe People” by the Boundary guys
    and it’s oh so helpful
    right now.
    Thanks for the awesome share,
    Jennifer

      Sorry for the late reply Jennifer. Your comment went to my blog’s spam folder for some reason. I too was so impressed by the grace and kindness in which she wrote her open letter. Too often I feel that some well-meaning believers spew hate instead of love when dealing with the topic. Wishing you a great week.

      Thank you, Jennifer for your kind comment.

      It was difficult to write and I am so happy to hear that you enjoyed it.

      God bless!
