Review: The Journey Of Faith
The Journey Of Faith by Fr.Benedict Groeschel,C.F.R.
I took a long time to read this book, because I wanted to savor everything Fr. Groeschel wrote. I highly respect him as a theologian and priest. This book is a journey to deepen your faith in Christ. This book teaches a lay person such as myself how to have Expectant Faith. He explains how we need faith, hope and love for salvation and the road to The Kingdom of God. As he goes through examples that we can relate too, it deepens your faith through the journey in this book. One thing that astonished me in this book is that, " 94% of people today believe there is a God who knows they exist and who personally cares about their existence". The Media in this country does not portray this statement, which is why I was shocked. Fr. Groeschel went on to talk about the Faith we need to have in our Church, the church that Christ created. Jesus established this church for us, a means for us to be saved. He has a whole chapter explaining practical ways to grow in our faith.He explains only through grace and the act of faith will we be able to sustained our faith. Finally, throughout this book he explains that prayer is the most essential part of our journey with God, that will guide us to have that Expectant Faith in Him. This is the most positive book about our Faith Journey with Christ that I ever read. I would highly recommend this book because it is a great book, not just because I highly respect the priest who wrote it.

As the School Year Starts
Year come and go. I remember the year I brought home both of my kids from the hospital. This year one graduates from elementary school and one is entering middle school. What an exciting year it will be? As look back, a tear comes to my eye. This time of the year is sad for many mothers who are sending their kids off to college, school for the first time, or entering a new school. I have always imagined what my kids would be like older when they were little. They have become awesome people. Their walk with God is different than mine but yet they trust in Him fully. Homeschooling has become a great education for them, we have traveled through many countries experiencing the food and culture. I have learned as well as them. My kids have taught me a great many lessons along the way. God sent me on this adventure to learn along with them, and we all have become different people because of it. We all have grown, changed and become closer to Our Blessed Lord than I ever would have sending them to Catholic School. As the school year starts tomorrow, I want to wish you all a Blessed New School Year!

Gluten -free
We went gluten free a couple of months ago, so I am experimenting with a lot of different stuff. Tonight I made Gluten free brownies, they are cooling as I speak, so hopefully, they will taste okay,we will see. I just got copied a graham cracker recipes off the Gluten-free Goddess. I hope by Christmas to be an excellent gluten- free baker. My son has alot of food allergies, gluten intolerance is a recent one. He is being checked for celiac in the fall. God has helped us through this all. He has been walking me through it and helping us find what he can and can't eat.
