Read Michele''''s column at: http://www.bizymoms.com/experts/michele-howe/index.html In line with her passion for working with single parents, Michele''''s resources offer encouragement to women of all ages by challenging them to exercise their combination of strengths, skills, and life wisdom in pursuit of a healthy and fulfilling lifestyle. Recognizing that life is often difficult, women can learn how to recognize (and find solace in) significant life-markers and by so doing, acquire the strength to embrace their daily challenges.
More a practical book than a spiritual one, Burdens Do a Body Good is based in Christian thinking and provides some decent food for thought. The ideas are simple, relevant, and of the type that makes you wonder why you hadnt thought of it yourself. One example is, Count on it, if somethings worthwhile, worth going after, it will entail some degree of risk. A book which fits easily in purse or lunch box, Burdens Do a Body Good will adapt to those moments when it is nice to have just a few paragraphs to read. Donna Eggett, www.ChristianBookPreviews.com
