When was the last time you read a book you couldn't put down? I had trouble waking up on this Wake-Up Wednesday because I finally started reading The Help on my flight back to Denver from Baton Rouge yesterday. And once I started, I couldn't put it down. What a powerful story and a reminder that change can begin with one person and that hope is a powerful thing. I recommend the book.
I received a similar and greatly humbling compliment on my book this past Sunday of a similar nature. A sister in the church in Baton Rouge approached me Sunday morning after the retreat and said, "Michelle, I started reading your book this morning and I couldn't put it down. I had to exercise a lot of self-discipline to set it aside so I could make it to church on time this morning." I thanked her and thanked God for giving me the words to touch even one life in inspiration of the battle to be Human AND Holy.
You may not be a reader, but I challenge you to pick up a good book and be transformed. Allow it to be a wake-up reminder on this Wake-Up Wednesday and be challenged. If you choose to pick up Human AND Holy to read and study, you can order it through this website (eStore link) or the ebook is available on Amazon and Barnes and Noble. Thanks! And have a blessed week.

"He's still working on me,
To make me what I ought to be.
It took Him just a week to make the moon and stars,
The sun and the earth and Jupiter and Mars.
How loving and patient He must be
'Cuz He's still working on me."
I don't know if you know that simple children's song, but I have it in my head tonight and wanted to share. I thank God constantly for His patience with me and that He allows me to be a continual work in progress. God calls us to change and gives us the freedom to leave behind our old ways, seek Him, and be transformed. Some days I feel like God has to work a little harder on that transformation, but I'm grateful that He never gives up on me. May You be comforted by that promise and the hope that you are still a work in progress - one that God will never give up on.
