Nightstand Nightmare

This is what my nightstand looked like 2 weeks ago...



I know, out of control and our bed isn't made. I don't know how my book collection has gotten so out of control. I usually check books out from the libary because that saves money and space plus it holds me accountable to finish the book in a timely manner.

The Lord has been conviting me of the trash I watch on tv. After taking this picture it confirmed what I already knew. I need to be reading at night instead of watching some trash before bed.

I have already finished 3 books and my nighstand is looking better. However, it's not anywhere near ready for an after picture.

One book I finished was....

It was a great book on miseducating our preschoolers. Thanks to my mother in-law for letting me borrow her book.

The second one I finished was...

I found this for $3 in the bargain section at Lighthouse Bookstore. It was a great read showing the balance of taking care of your body and your soul daily. Check back Friday for a highlight from this book. The only thing I didn't like about this book was that the author didn't mention BeautiControl but I am contacting her so BeautiControl while be on her lips. LOL. (BeautiControl has a challenge right now to put BeautiControl on the lips of everyone woman. I am going to do my part.)

The third one I finished was...

Isn't this a pretty cover?!? The side is pretty too. I received this book for free with points I earned listening to Christian radio stations. I love Praise 88.7 and you can listen for the artist of the day, songs at different times, etc. Check it out here to cash in your points for prizes. This was a great book showing how we are all stained with sin but God our Savior looks past all of that when we ask for His forgiveness. More to come on this book later.

The Lord has blessed my time reading so much more that watching trash on tv. I can't wait to share with you!!
