I just stumbled upon the most precious place! 

By accident of course.

I often hide somewhat from what I call a “mega” blog.  I guess I feel lost in the numbers somehow.

I also feel uncomfortable if I can’t leave someone a comment and share how much her/his post meant to me.  You know — when the comments have been disabled.  Ouch – so uncomfy for me.

Well, I threw all of my caution to the wind today and “followed” a mega blog that has the comments disabled.  Ha.  This is why: My eyes landed on this post.  You really must go over and read …

This picture belongs to the author.  I’m not trying to break any copyright rules (please have mercy on me Ann) — just pointing you over to her blog:

One Habit that Radically Changes a Family

Words are always dessert.
I was sixteen when I first I ate dinner at his house.
And when the plates were cleaned, forks laid down, when it’d seem commonplace to nod thanks to the cook and push back the chairs, his family bowed their heads and his Father opened a Bible.

It was thick and tattered, had a multitude of bookmarks sticking out from all the pages, and he read from that Scripture in an even thicker Dutch accent. Chapter finished, he’d close the book, look around the table, choose one of the sons to close the meal the way it began, in a word of prayer.
And then, only then, would the chairs would push away, the souls fed.

Do you want more of this story?  I sure did!  So precious.  Head over to A Holy Experience.  The blog author is Ann Voskamp, homeschooling Mom of six, and ANOINTED writer.  Click her button below and take a tour.  You won’t regret it.  Yes, I know she has close to 4000 followers.  There is a reason for that …  She is also a published author.  You will find her book there as well.

 

Barbie — why didn’t you tell me about her?  :o)

Have a blessed Thursday everyone!
