Favorite Things: RUBY magazine and New Friends

Hello February! We are one day closer to spring, and it’s been crazy busy around here . . . as I’m sure it has been for you, as well. Even after the hustle and bustle of the holiday season is over, suddenly there are so many new adventures on the horizon. I’m really excited to welcome Theresa Begin to the Thursday Favorite Things Team! It always amazes me how God brings friends from around the world and all across our great nation together through the gift of the internet. Yes, I know the internet has all kinds of “dangerous” things about it, too, so I do my best to be careful and for sure, to protect my daughters from online dangers. But I also have experienced the gift of friendship with women that I never, ever would have met in my little farming community in northern Indiana!

One of the ways that God has blessed me through my online connections is with all of the amazing writers who share their gift of words, stories, devotionals, poetry, and inspirational articles every month. Today the February issue of RUBY magazine is available, with a great article by Theresa Begin about starting and keeping a gratitude journal. If you haven’t started a journal yet this new year, be sure to read her article for some great tips and advice to get you going.

I love working on the RUBY magazine each month, and Theresa has been a great help with the magazine this past month. I am so grateful for her servant’s heart, her love for the Lord, her love for her family, and her passion for helping people. I hope you will welcome Theresa to our weekly linky party, stop by her blog and give her a virtual hug! You will love her, too! I’ve got some exciting news to share with you all in the comingFavorite Things: RUBY magazine and New Friends week or so, but for now, I have to check on the students in my online writing class . . . but I’ll be back to connect with some of you this week, as well.

Thanks for stopping by the Thursday Favorite Things Blog Hop and Linky Party – hope to see you again soon!
