To read or not to read?....that is a silly question!

Positive thinking




After reading Tommy Newberry's THE 4:8 PRINCIPLE, it was an easy transition to read 40 DAYS TO A JOY-FILLED LIFE: LIVING THE 4:9 PRINCIPLE.  As the title says, the reader is supposed to read the book one chapter a day at a time, which I did.  I liked reading a book that way.  Rick Warren's THE PURPOSE-DRIVING LIFE is done like that, too.  It helps me absorb what I've read to read just a little bit every day.

Newberry's book is not just a book; it's also a workbook.  More than anything, it helps me focus on things that are lovely, just, of good report, and so on.  After going through some really rough patches here recently, I needed to change my focus of thinking.  I'm not all the way THERE as far as keeping my thoughts 4:8 focused (that's Philippians 4:8, in case you don't know), but at least I know I'm making progress and that Newberry's book has helped me with that!
