Here are a few of my favorite things,
found out on the Web this week:

 

 

♥ TheHighCalling.org is hosting a writing project about vacations.
high calling logo You can link up your summer vacation story over at Charity Singleton’s blog, until June 4.

Charity is hosting The High Calling project. Charity writes, “ Whether your stories are funny or heartbreaking, nostalgic or philosophical, we want to hear what you think about vacations.”

The Gypsy Mama shared her annual post entitled, “You are More than Your Swimsuit.” If you’re dreading swimsuit season, you’ll appreciate this thoughtful, truth-filled post by The Gypsy Mama.

♥ I’m so excited to share this one with you. My dear friend, Emily Wierenga, has written a book entitled Chasing Silhouettes: How to Help a Loved One Battling an Eating DisorderMaybe you haven’t struggled with an eating disorder, but chances are, you know someone who has. This is a soon-to-be-released book written by someone who wasn’t a mere bystander or spectator, but an overcomer. She is a dear sister in Christ, who is a gifted writer and artist. There is a solution to the struggle with eating disorders, and the solution has a name: Jesus Christ. Emily takes you on her own journey, and you can read the beginning of her gripping story over on her blog, imperfect prose.  (There, you can also read how to pre-order the book.)

♥ And this, a prayer for the broken-hearted, by Ann Voskamp at (in)courage. Praying this today for any of you who’ve been wounded.

Linking with Deidra and Sandra today.
