New Life Dialogue: Sing to the Lord!!!

Sing to the Lord!!!

The cold grey skies of the last few days and my husband's surgery that landed him in the ICU with an infection and breathing tube has caused me to search out other joys. Looking over my Work In Progress I found this entry, just as the song "Blessed Be Your Name" came on the radio. I sang my heart out. It's a gift God has given to all, even if you can't keep a tune for beans like me!

"Sing out the honor of His name. Make his praise glorious" (Psalm 66:2).

Song gladdens the heart. Praise lifts it to heavenly praises. Worship My holy name and your soul will be blessed. Walk out of worry and fear with worship. Let the shackles fall. Let the river of life cleanse you from all sin. Bath in the river of life through praise. Wash away your sickness and disease. Come down to the Jordan River with Me.
I know your illnesses, both mental and physical. I can wash away your anxieties. I can restore you to wholeness. Soak in My presence. Spend time listening to Me. Sing your heart out. Let your soul sing praises in the night watch. Make My praise glorious! You will have nothing to fear. Nothing will cause you to stumble when your heart is singing. Trust in Me. Light will shine upon your darkness.

"Intriguing, well-written, and good character development -this is a suspenseful read! I can usually predict the plot in a lot of books but this book had so many twists and turns that I didn't see coming! The setting is well-fleshed out."

Review of Sensible Shoes

Sensible Shoes by Sharon Garlough Brown
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

"> Sensible Shoes: I loved everything about this book, except the title. It seemed too pat for my likes. Anyway, on the positive side, I loved how the book dealt with a spiritual journey that you could join along with. I learned something from all the characters about myself and my own spiritual journey, as well as others.All the characters, brash and bold, quiet and timid, self-centered and productive and the goodie two shoes Christian taught me something about myself. It was refreshing to read a Christian book that dealt honestly with important issues: heart attitudes, motives, sex, self-centeredness, jealousy etc. I journeyed right along with these women. Freshly written, simple yet profound. I also learned much from the character who was the spiritual leader. I want to be her! What a wonderful, loving woman.

Reviews of Letters to God

A highly recommend read and a wonderfully written book, witness the transformation of a mother who felt helpless to help her son, but turns to God and never lets go. Watch her faith grow and her son find freedom, redemption and deliverance. This true story will touch your heart and give you the faith to keep holding on. This book is truly a triumphant and wonderful testimony to the saving power of God and the power of prayer. Thank you Anita Estes for sharing your story and writing this book.

Review from Yvonne Pat Wright, Canadian author

5 stars out of 5 Estes' writing is straightforward, fluent and easy to read, so much so that I was tempted to rush through the book (it's a page turner) without taking time to grasp the seriousness and depth of the narrative. The final outcome is proof positive that God does answer prayers, but not before Estes, her husband, who himself is battling self-esteem issues, and their two other children come out of denial and face the reality that their loved one is a drug addict and needs to be treated with the tough love that eventually helps in Ben's recovery. This book should be required reading in schools to help parents and students recognize the dangers of alcohol as a gateway to harsher drugs, a fact often overlooked. Read More

Reviews on Goodreads

Windows of the Soul: Enjoyed the various plotlines, but found it just a little odd that a number of pages were written about Evan Kentwell in the prologue and then he appears and disappears throughout the book with no resolution to his plot. Very Southern feel to the writing. Interesting characters though I did get quite annoyed with the female protagonist, Mattie. She sure was stubborn not to see what she had in Cotton, the hero of the story. Makes you want to say to her, "Wake up girl!" Plot moves along quickly and exciting events develop later in the book.
