Catching Fireflies – Teaching Your Heart to See God’s Light Everywhere
by Patsy Clairmont [Best-Selling Author and Women of Faith Speaker]
In the book, Patsy writes, “I hope this book will offer you new understanding and thoughts that kindle your desire to seek God in fresh ways. Together we will explore different kinds of illumination that help us find that path…. I believe just as surely as God had a place assigned for the sun, moon, and stars, He has a place for us as His light holders. A place where we get to shine.”
The book is not required for this class, but it’s an EXCELLENT read [doesn't it just look yummy?!] and can be purchased at the link above, as well as at most bookstores [I picked mine up at Barnes & Noble.] I love the different kinds of light that Patsy uses to illustrate God’s goodness. It was so hard to pick only 5 for us to focus on together, but I plan to share some of my favorites [and the ones that touched my heart] with you during our five weeks together. I'm changing things up a little for this class - all ‘classes’ will be posted on the blog, www.bepresentbereal.blogspot.com Anyone can participate for one or more weeks. Excerpts from the book will be posted on Mondays with Faithbooking Prompts and a sketch for your use. My take will be posted on Wednesdays. I’d love to see your work! If you’re participating, please join the FaithBasedPagesClasses Yahoo Group [link on the blog] where we will share discussion as well as our faith based pages. A participation prize will be randomly drawn from those who complete all five lessons [layouts must be posted on the Yahoo group above to be entered. ]

ok i purchased the book today. and i joined the yahoo group. looking forward to the class. already in tears from reading the book.
A memory: when my guys were little we went to visit Papa-they caught fireflies in a jar, placed them in their bedroom and when they awoke next day - fireflies were all over the wall; escaped the jar. loved it.
