I really thank God that I have the opportunity to read more these days. With few commitments outside of work, and since trying to cut back on things like shopping and TV, I have found myself with a lot more spare time! It's amazing because since I have tried to cut back, I haven't really missed either that much. I'm honestly enjoying reading more and doing other more productive things.
I managed to finish another book - 'Man: The Dwelling Place of God' by AW Tozer. After reading the Pursuit of God, I was fond of Tozer, but now after reading MTDPOG - I am a complete Tozer fan! The book was a huge blessing to me - through it I really feel as though my understanding of a lot of the basic fundamentals of my faith as a Christian have been cemented and deepened to a whole new level. I understand more now why holiness is so important for prayer. I don't feel as petrified about standing up for God because in the end to be right with God is to be wrong with the world - and I'm cool with that (though time will be the ultimate test). The importance of repentance, true contrition for sins and a longing for holiness have been reinforced in my heart.
Tozer is great. But don't take my word for it, check him out yourself! To read MTDPOG online, click here. For any other Tozer fixes, this is a good website.
Next book on the list is 'Problems with Christian Discipleship' by J Oswald Sanders.

I love Tozer, though I need to get back to reading more of him. It seems there's a lot of things that having a newborn makes difficult! :)
