The Gifts Continue To Come

Wow, Jerry goes out to water the plants on the front porch and brings in a box. Did you order something, he asks. Oh my goodness, I bet that is from Lara. We have barely said good-bye on our family talk cell phones. I call her back immediately and let her know I got a box. I have no idea yet what is in it but thank you and I love you. When we talked earlier she asked if I had gotten anything. I say ummm well some emails. We get to talking about emails we have sent back & forth and I totally forget to ask her what she means, have I gotten anything.
Jerry hands me the box. It is from a Christian store. Inside the box are a book by Beth Moore and the Companion Journal. How wonderful!!!! Lara knows I really like Beth's teachings and am learning so much from this Christian woman. There is another book about how to study the Bible. Recently, I told Lara I never learned how to study. I want to "study" the Bible, not just read it. In the note, enclosed with the books, first she tells Happy Belated Birthday, then says how she really likes this author and feels he will perhaps help me with my problem. Another gratefully appreciated birthday gift.
Yep!!! Fifty-eight has it rewards.
