Scripture of the Week: September 3rd, 2020

Happy Thursday Friends :)

I hope and pray that September is treating you well so far, and I want to thank you all for joining me for another edition of Scripture of the Week here on The Preppy Book Princess.

I talked last week about a spiritual warfare battle I've been going through, and I'm still fighting my way through it. I'm trying to turn to prayer and God's word as much as I possibly can to battle against the enemy, and today I'd like to share with you another Bible verse that has been a tremendous help to me lately.

Psalm 56:3

"When I am afraid, I will trust in you."

I've loved this verse ever since I first started reading the Mandie books by Lois Gladys Leppard as a young child, as it was one of Mandie's favorite verses and often mentioned throughout the series. It may seem to be a simple verse, but it's meaning is extremely powerful. When I'm afraid I will turn to God instead of turning to fear and anxiety, and it's an extremely easy verse to memorize for those times when you need a scripture to help you through challenging times.

I'll be praying that this verse will be a source of inspiration for each one of you, the same way it has been for me.

Have a great long weekend and God Bless!

Happy Friday Everyone :) I hope you're all having a great week! Mine has actually been pretty good. We've had some really nice days, and my husband and I were finally able to put our garden in, and various flowers and the like. We've also had a couple of lovely, rainy days as well, and I love how green everything is looking in our yard right now.

First Line Friday: Courting Mr. Emerson

Happy Friday Everyone :) Since it is Friday, I'll once again be participating in First Line Friday which is hosted by Hoarding Books . For this week, I'm going to be sharing the first line from Melody Carlson's newest book, Courting Mr. Emerson. About The Book: When the fun-loving and spontaneous artist Willow West meets buttoned-up, retired English teacher George Emerson, it's not exactly love at first sight. Though she does find the obsessive-compulsive man intriguing. Making it her mission to get him to loosen up and embrace life, she embarks on what seems like a lost cause--and finds herself falling for him in the process. A confirmed bachelor, George vacillates between irritation and attraction whenever Willow is around--which to him seems like all too often. He's not interested in expanding his horizons or making new friends; it just hurts too much when you lose them. But as the summer progresses, George feels his defenses crumbling. The quest
