The One Year Holy Land Moments Devotional Review


**Tyndale House Publishers has provided me with a complimentary copy of this book for the purposes of reviewing it, these opinions are my own.****

It has been a long time since I last blogged. There have been many season changed in 2013, I have chosen for this rocky season to be filled with God up front and fully instead of getting frustrated and taking it into my own hands and eventually giving it to Him. I think thats the way he likes it too!

As part of that journey, I am seeking His face and trying to learn more by reading amazing theologian and christian womens books. The most recent read through I have done, and will start doing as a daily devotional on my birthday! is," The One Year Holy Land Moments Devotional," by Rabbi Yechiel Echstein and Dr. Tremper Longman III. 


The subtitle piece explains why I REALLY wanted to get to review and read this book, " Inspiring Reflections on Scripture from a Jewish Rabbi and a Christian Theologian." 
When I was in high school I was a part of PALS (Peer Assistance and Leadership, my group basically describes this pairing: a jew, a mormon, a catholic, baptist and non church goer. The one thing we could all agree on was that someone elses view on a writing helps us see a different side of our own beliefs. 

This book is very thorough on including bible references and has a sabbath/ 7th day reflection days. Includes indexing if you would like to jump around and follow through the bible.

LIFE: The Thing I was Promised I Could Not Do

I feel like every post I make, I am finding more of my voice again. I never in my life felt like I would have a voice to share about some of the more body related posts that I have made, but here I am to share about another personal body part- lol! I realized I had not shared about my breast feeding journey and I feel like it is something that might help someone. So the journey starts on a very cold day in January 2018. As I have noted in previous blogs, I had a c-section which was not 100 percent my goal but 100 percent perfect in every way. I was told going into my c-section that it may take a little longer for my milk to fully come in but it was not going to be impossible. So when my little guy was able to join me in the room we would be in, we went to work. I was still very medicated and he made his wiggly way to the source. I knew not much was coming but he was happy at the end of each feeding attempt, but his blood sugar was low and the nurses wanted me to switch to formula and w...

REVIEW: Gratitude: A Prayer and Praise Coloring Journal

{necessary information} I received this book as a try-me from Tyndale Publishers and the opinions expressed in this blog are mine alone and not those of the author or publisher {transparency of blogger} I have worked for preschools and coaching facilities and as a babysitter for most of my life. Sometimes you have an extra coloring sheet laying around while the kids are babysitting ( and sometimes it was on purpose) so you have to sit down with the kids and use the best crayons or color pencils available to color the extra page. Okay, okay, I love to color. There is something therapeutic to coloring.  { review Gratitude} I love all things girly, so the fact that this book came with a flowery firm cover- I was giddy. Then you open up to devotion surrounded with black and white images crying to be colored- I was over the moon. After I read the devotional there is room to journal through my thoughts, taking coloring breaks. I highly reccomend this book for all ages and would b...

2014 Retrospective

Well well, 2015 snuck up on the Huffman- but want to look back at 2014. January tick tock, tick tock- we spent time waiting on our call- our 2013 ended after a whippity skippity trip to Indianapolis and knew that in Gods timing we would be finding out if and when we would take our next adventure. So before the end of January we knew our new journey would be to Indiana, and it would be soon. I ended my time at Gracepoint and subbed at Churchill Baptist until we got the news. Went to the San Antonio Zoo one last time for our 5th anniversary and what would be our last anni in SA ( for free due to the Spurs winning). We enjoyed seeing GHOST with friends before receiving our call and making final prep for our move to Indy. February Good byes are hard,  especially when they are family, friends and food. Both of us were born and raised in South Texas and even when we moved to Oklahoma for 9 months in 2008-2009 for school at OBU- San Antonio was still home. Basica...
