I see some similarities in our lists, and note that others have also been inspired by those same books. We're not too different from each other, are we?

When I read of her...I too loved Catherine Marshall. When I read of her passing, I felt the loss of a dear friend. I still have her books in my little library and take them out occasionally and read them.

Catheri...We must have shared the same era, Elenor! Catherine Marshall's books along with Elizabeth Elliot's were life changers for me too. Several more on your list were favourites of mine. How thankful I am for the continued work of the Spirit through God's children as they write about their relationship to the Saviour.

(Those I mentioned were of the more serious spiritual life kind that predominiated in my reading for a number of decades.) <br />Thank you.~~+~~Peter Blackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15529992196266271463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6213977381458736343.post-35477780903545477342015-02-01T22:16:07.302-05:002015-02-01T22:16:07.302-05:00Goodness, Eleanor, some of those books you mention...Goodness, Eleanor, some of those books you mentioned brought back some wonderful memories for me, too. It really is amazing how literature can influence a mind. Shows you, though, how important it is to fill our minds 'properly.' The Bible is the wisest choice - and I love reading from the different translations. :) Glynishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15621548333351709607noreply@blogger.com
