I am transferring June 1 to Lifeway Christian Bookstore in Knoxville. I spoke to my new manager today, and had a wonderful conversation. I have worked part time for Lifeway since February 2008, and I have met some wonderful people. How I love working in this bookstore! I started with Lifeway in Jacksonville, transferred to Orlando, and now transferring to Knoxville. What a ministry! One day I will share more about some of the experiences I have had in working there. One of my favorite moments was watching a mother leave the bookstore with her 2 young daughters and 3 Bibles...one for each of them. We spent a good bit of time together looking at options. How it warms my heart to think of them sitting at their house...learning to love God's word as much as I do! How I love the word of God...it is so facinating! God is so intricate. Just this week I was listening to Beth Moore's tapes on "Just Give Me Jesus" as she was talking about the thorns in Genesis....how the thorns were the curse...and Jesus wore the curse on his head....you think you have read Genesis and should know it by now...and then......We, brothers and sisters, need each other. God reveals Himself to each of us in different ways, and what a blessing it is to learn from each other. That's one reason I love the bookstore so much....I was thinking this week that I have so many people to thank...who have inspired me, and challenged me, and taught me....all from the pages of a book!
