Walking With God ebook

As Christians we know we should pray and that we need to pray more. But there’s an even better reason than Christian duty to pray. It’s that God just wants to be with us! He is just WILD about you and me!

Would you like a closer, more passionate relationship with God through daily prayer and studying His word? Spending time with Jesus at His feet like Mary of Bethany did? 

You don’t have to pray for hours every day, or get up at the crack of dawn either.  God never goes on vacation. He doesn’t have call waiting. And He doesn’t have to try to squeeze you in on His Dayplanner. God is always there for you!

This ebook also includes BONUS goodies  – two of my articles on prayer, plus Session #2 of my 7-audio, bundle set on quiet time with God.  To learn more about my ebook Walking With God for sale for only $10.99, click here.

A new look for preparation of January launch

Celebrity new hairstyle

If you have noticed Tablet Of My Heart’s website appears different, it has gotten a little bit of a new look. The “search” feature is now underneath the RSS and email subscribe button at the top of the page on the right hand side. My personal mailing list sign-up for the weekly ezine has been moved down a little on the page. 

I have temporarily made some articles and other pages private to make room for some new articles and products for sale, and have added a new heading on the black navigational bar (7-audio sessions).

Kelly with FreshNets helped me with the change to my website’s search feature, so I could add the new heading (7-audio sessions) on the black navigational bar at the top of the page. The new changes are preparation for Cindy Rushton’s group coaching program class’ BIG LAUNCH in January 2010, and to make room for the new products I am working on this coming year. 

Some of the students  in Cindy’s coaching group who are EXCELLENT writers and speakers will be teaching and sharing words of encouragement on Cindy’s upcoming show in one month, so stay tuned for a VERY exciting event! You don’t want to miss this one! I can’t WAIT!

All of us students in her coaching program will be introducing our brand-new products that we began creating in her class during the four weeks in December.  I HIGHLY recommend Cindy’s coaching program. Cindy is a mighty woman of God, and she just pours out His love, wisdom, and very practical, helpful advice on making information products, based on over 20 years of great success in writing and speaking. She has another coaching program coming up soon. You can find out more at www.cindyrushton.com or email her at cindy@cindyrushton.com.

For my product in Cindy’s class, I am finishing up a 7-audio series on prayer, based on my book Walking With God, that will include freebie session questions, freebie session articles, and other goodies, in a bundle set for sale.

This audio set will include practical, useful tips for how to have that daily quiet time with God in the midst of a noisy, hectic, rushed world! So many of us wives and moms have a long to-do list every day, and we feel like we can’t squeeze in just ONE more thing.  This series will encourage you to make prayer to God a #1 priority in your life, and will give you helpful  tips for HOW to make that happen – and it does not have to take an HOUR, but in just a few minutes a day. You will see what a difference prayer can make in YOUR life and in those around you!

If you are not already signed up for my personal mailing list for my weekly ezine, sign up today so you’ll be sure to not miss any new updates or announcements about this upcoming launch in one month! 

Just go to the top of the page on the right hand side, and fill in your email address. Your email address is safe with me; I will never sell, rent, or give it away; you will NOT receive spam from me! What you WILL receive is a weekly ezine with encouragement from God’s word in mini-articles, updates on what’s new here at Tablet Of My Heart, a link to my newest podcast, and freebie articles and audios to bless you and to encourage you in your friendship with God.

Love is the ultimate brand-BTR show

We’ve all heard how important a good brand is for your business and/or website.  Love is the ultimate app and brand. Based on Tim Sanders’ book, Love Is The Killer App and 1 Corinthians 13, I shared today on the key for success in business and personal fulfillment.

Good intentions

They say the road to hell is paved with good intentions, but what about the road to success?

Yesterday I said that today I was going to try to do NOTHING (my day was really busy yesterday – by choice).  Well, it didn’t happen. I was busy again today - by choice, to get some things DONE!  

But tomorrow I DO intend to rest, as Mary DeMuth encouraged her readers tonight in her monthly ezine.  You can receive Mary’s beautifully-written ezine articles by subscribing here.  She wrote, “God is calling all of us to fly to take shelter. Our world is full of raging winds and tempests aplenty. He commands us to flee to the wilderness, to rejuvenate, to settle ourselves into Him.”

I plan to SLEEP IN tomorrow.  Read a good book on my bed in my pajamas when I wake up, and forget about getting dressed for awhile.  My favorite pj’s are a loose pair of long, black pj pants and a loose, long-sleeved, maroon shirt with a picture of a tiger’s face on it, that I found for $3 at a thrift store once!  Victoria’s Secret it is not, but it’s so comfortable!

Tomorrow I intend to do a Twitter/Facebook/blog/writing fast (GASP!)   Savor a slowed-down, quiet, still day. 

Tomorrow afternoon our family is invited to a potluck-in-the-park. Doesn’t that sound fun? Getting together with friends, making new ones, bringing a side dish to share and eating good food, enjoying the sunshine, and letting the kids play to their hearts’ content.   I am so looking forward to it. 

NEXT week I will begin working on Carrie’s “Explosive 4 C’s” for your business, as she talked about on The Barefoot Executive TV. I love Carrie – she’s so inspiring and so full of joy! 

 What are you doing this weekend to rejuvenate and to be filled back up after your busy week?  What is your way of unwinding?

Something worth retaining

How has your week been so far?  I’ve had a great week.  God is good! 

My first order of my book, Walking With God, arrived in the mail a couple of days ago. Here I am in our kitchen, opening the first few I ordered (I made a second, much bigger order today).  Our daughter Leah enjoys taking pics from an angle. Do I look better slanted?

I couldn’t wait to open the package.  For a writer, her work seems like, well, her baby!  Now, after months of working on it, editing, rewriting, and editing again, I could see and hold it!  As Tim Sanders says in his book,  Love Is the Killer App: How To Win Business and Influence Friends, “Simply put, … books are the bomb. They are fun to hold. They become personal the first time you mark them up.  There’s something wonderful about the sound of rustling paper. There’s something exciting about writing down the ideas that interest you. ” (p. 71)

Yes, the sound of rustling paper. Anyone who loves to read or loves to write understands this.  Last week Ray took me to the Half Price Book Store in Overland Park, and I just did not want to leave. All those wonderful books!   The hardest decision is what to have to put back!

 Author Tim Sanders suggests always carrying a book and a pen, the smallest pen possible that can be used as a bookmark, too. He says to read actively, searching in your book for something worth retaining, underlining to find that passage again quickly.  “The point:  always be writing when reading.  I tag things by underlining. And I underline slowly, so I am sure to reread carefully.  As a child, I would watch my mother study her Bible for hours, painstakingly marking it with her pen as she underlined everything she wished to remember. When I asked why she took so long, she told me she wasn’t just underlining – she was studying the passage as she marked it. That’s what I do today.” (pp. 78-79)

Here I am, holding my own book Walking With God for the first time.  I was having a really bad hair day, but joy filled my heart. Remember when you looked at your baby for the first time just after she was born?  All you could think of was that she was so beautiful.  That is what I thought, too, about my book with its cover of the woman on the beach with the sun in the background, and my name on it.   Would you ever call a mother vain or prideful for thinking such a thing about her baby?  Maybe it sounds so silly, but this made my whole week! My book is now also on Amazon.com for purchase here.

Did you ever have two really good things happen to you in one week?  This past Saturday our neighbor Penny was having her garage sale.  I had errands to do that day, and several times as I backed out of the driveway and drove past her house, Penny was sitting in a folding chair on her front lawn in the sun, looking hot and bored.  Toward the end of the afternoon, I thought I’d walk over and say a neighborly hello and politely ask if her sale was going ok.  She looked around at all the stuff that had not sold yet, and said sarcastically, “Oh yeah!  I’m just about to have to close up!”  We both laughed.  Another woman, who arrived about the time I did, was carefully rummaging through the baby clothes and scented candles, and Penny said, “Everything is now half off!”  That is when I spied the women’s shoes on the sidewalk.

To my absolute delight, I found a pair of cute, black women’s Moda Spana shoes with a little bit of heel for 25 CENTS in my exact size!  I hurried home to get some change to snatch them up before the other customer did.  They are adorable, the best bargain I’ve ever had.  They were something worth retaining!   Here are two pictures of them. They go with jeans, dress casual, or a skirt for church!

This week as you spend time with God, and meditate in His word, ask Him to help you to find some-thing that is worth retaining.

 Jeremiah 15:16 (NKJV) says, “Your words were found, and I ate them, And Your word was to me the joy and rejoicing of my heart; For I am called by Your name, O LORD God of hosts.”

I am taking a little time out today to watch a chic flic to unwind.

What are some of your favorite chic flics?  I love almost anything with Reese Witherspoon, Meg Ryan, and Meryl Streep.  What do you do to relax and have fun?
