Flyby Review: Loved & Blessed Box


It is SO MUCH FUN to get a package in the mail, isn't it?  This was a different kind of promotion from Flyby Promotions.  I got a box in the mail with goodies in it to review.  Fun, fun, fun!

Here is my one-of-a-kind box.  Its theme was "Masterpiece."  It contained an explanation card, a small poster that reads "Make each day Your Masterpiece," a sticker, a framed picture of flowers to color, and a set of 12 colored pencils.  It also contained a scripture card with Ephesians 2:10 NLT:
For we are God's masterpiece.  He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago.
What a fantastic reminder!


The timing was great, as I had a homeschool moms'-night-out coming up at which we were planning to color adult coloring books.  I took my box with me and colored the flower picture in the frame above.  It is really cute, and the colored pencils were of fair quality and worked well.  I also used the color pencils to color one of the coloring pages there.


The Loved and Blessed boxes are not mass-produced.  Each one is one-of-a-kind and is built around an uplifting theme.  Each box contains a mini poster, reminder sticker, scripture card to keep in your pocket or purse or give to another for encouragement, a keepsake theme card, and a special gift that could be jewelry, a prayer accessory, stationery, journal, home decor and more!  These make a great gift for a relative, friend, secret sister, or anyone you know who could use some encouragement!
About Loved and Blessed:Unlike many subscription boxes, loved+blessed® is about hope and encouragement, rather than products.  As a cause box, they measure the value of their boxes a little differently from many other companies.  Each month they send a box of encouragement to your loved+blessed® ladies with a different theme that they hope will brighten their month, help them get through the challenges of life and help them to pass encouragement along to someone else.   
Today you can register to win not just one box, but a whole Year of Encouragement (12 free boxes)!  To register to win, go to http://bit.ly/lovedandblessed.

Flyby Review: Glimmer Girls


Today, once again, I am excited to bring you a guest reviewer, my daughter, Madeleine.  Madeleine reviewed London Art Chase and A Dolphin Wish, which together make up the Glimmer Girls series by Natalie Grant.  Madeleine, who sometimes goes by "Maddie," was very excited to get these books about twins named Maddie and Mia.  Madeleine's best friend's name is Mia!  Here is her review:



Glimmer Girls is a fun book series designed for young girls. It is a Christian book, and it talks a lot about trusting God, and to pray to him about everything.

Glimmer Girls consists of two books.

Book one is London Art Chase. In this book, the glimmer girls go to London and Maddie witnesses an art theft while trying to find out what makes her special.

Book two in the Glimmer Girls series is A Dolphin Wish. In A Dolphin Wish, the glimmer girls take a vacation in San Diego, and during a trip to the amusement park Mia overhears a conversation about animals being let out of their habitats, and Mia wants to do her part in saving the animals.

Join the glimmer girls on their adventures on tour with their famous musical mother, Gloria Glimmer.
About Glimmer Girls:  Readers will join twins Mia and Maddie, and their little sister, Lulu, as they travel the country finding adventure, mystery, and mischief along the way.  Together with their father, famous mother, singer Gloria Glimmer, and their slightly wacky nanny, Miss Julia, the smart and sassy sisters learn lessons about being good friends, telling the truth, and a whole lot more.
This promotion is a two-book fiction series for 9-12 year old girls from award winning singer Natalie Grant.

Grant says:  "Glimmer Girls is a fiction series that I have created with my daughters.  The storyline is about three girls who go on tour with their singing mom.  I have no idea where I came up with that plot!  It’s fun for my little girls to help with the content because they actually live that life.  Glimmer is the last name of the family, but it also has a special meaning.  It is a light that is never extinguished.  Sometimes it may glimmer a little bit brighter, sometimes it may glimmer a little bit dimmer, but it never goes out.  I felt like that was such a perfect description for all of us.  We all have a light on the inside and depending on the day, sometimes it’s bright and sometimes it’s dim.  That is the message I wanted girls to get from this book.  You don’t always have to be shining bright, some days are going to be more difficult than others, but Jesus has put a light in you that will never go out.”
If you know a preteen who would enjoy these books, I would love to have a free set sent to you!  I will have a drawing for one lucky winner to receive these books from Flyby Promotions next Monday, March 28.  To enter, leave a comment here or on my Facebook page!

A Good, Good Father - Song, Video, and Giveaway




We all have a picture of who we think God is. When we get down to the foundation of what we believe, the truth is that God is exactly who He says He is – a good, good Father.

What is your view of who God is?  I know, it's a big question that we can't answer in one blogpost.  In talking to people over the years, I have realized that so many people's picture of God is influenced heavily by their relationship with their earthly fathers.  A person who has a good relationship with his own earthly father will see God as a good father who loves him.  A person whose father was not involved in her life may see God as distant and unreachable.  A person whose father was strict, legalistic, or even abusive may see God in the same way.

The fact is, no matter what your relationship is with your earthly father, or even if that relationship is non-existent, you have a good father in heaven.  He never changes.  Luke 11:11 says:
Which of you fathers, if your son asks for a fish, will give him a snake instead? Or if he asks for an egg, will give him a scorpion? If you then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!
God is not a cosmic Santa Claus or Genie-in-the-lamp who grants every wish on demand.  Neither is He a pushover who hands out mercy without justice.  He is also not an angry deity who casts lightning bolts for no reason.  He is a GOOD FATHER who knows what you need before you even ask, and who desires a real relationship with you in the good times and the bad.

I have always liked Chris Tomlin because of his music, but also because of his heart for worship.  He has always seemed to be more interested in leading others in worship, and in helping others to be worship leaders, than in the performance.  We have sung his recent song, "Good, Good Father" (written by the worship band Housefires) a lot at church already.  Now you can see the video of the song performed by Chris Tomlin with Pat Barrett of the Housefires, as well as the story behind the song.

 

 Get the song on iTunes here:  http://smarturl.it/CTGoodGoodFather?IQid=pbn
