Day...[I don't even know] It's been too long to count!

Here I've been, well over a month--and it's been lovely thus far! Nothing like what I'd expected to say the least, however, it's been a refreshing vacation!

About two years ago I ran into a book series called "The Circle Trilogy" by a man named Ted Dekker. It consists of three books called, "Black", "Red", and "White". This summer I've decided to read through them again! This series is without a doubt the most epic books I've ever come across!

It is a gripping allegory of our lives in relation to the unseen realm that the Bible refers to in this verse, "So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal."
[2 Cor. 4:18] Along with the verses that speak about how the battles we fight are not with flesh & blood, not against the people or things that we see...but it is against the things that we cannot see with our natural eyes. Just simply that there is a lot more going on in this world than what we can see.

It's a pretty foreign concept to try and grasp in ones mind, and seems so surreal when trying to capture the reality of that internally. The whole idea [& reality]  is very compelling, in my opinion. These three books delve into that world of thought in a way I'd never experienced until I was captivated by the words on their pages. The story told, although fictional in aspects, left me with an entirely new perspective and view on all of the things I've known and believed my whole life, encompassed in believing in Jesus Christ as my Savior, and also on the love that God has for me.

So, if anyone is looking for a good book to just kick back, relax and chill this summer, I'd say this is a great place to begin! :)
