Finally in the mail
Six days after announcing the two winners for the above book, I have finally gotten them ordered and they are on their way.....
ONE to my dear friend, Retha, from South Africa
and
THE SECOND to my new friend, Sylvia, from the United Kingdom. Just learned that Sylvia has been reading Penless but a lurker. Ginger introduced me officially in early November of last year.
The books are scheduled to arrive in each location between March 2 and March 22. Sorry it is taking so long :o( but trust the wait will be worth it.
Retha also shared the following information on her recent post which I did not know and found so very interesting:
"It is a book written by Andrew Murray on prayer. Andrew Murray was a preacher in South Africa. I am aware that he was instrumental in many being saved. But have never read anything he wrote. I have heard of his words;
"May not a single moment of my life be spent outside the light, love, and joy of God's presence."
In 2009 we visited the house where he grew up. It is now a period museum. His father was a preacher. I am not certain if he had one or two brothers who also became preachers.
He was the first president of the YMCA
In a sense this book is coming home. Home to its origin, also home to have a piece of Mrs. Susan whom I hope to meet some day."
Yes, Retha, in a sense the book is coming home and I, too, hope to meet you some day.

Am looking forward to read this, ma'am
I'm sure both ladies will enjoy the book! Sylvia has been a blessing to me since I met her online.
Wow! That's pretty amazing. Amazing and sweet actually.
Two wonderful ladies will be blessed indeed!
I love it that the two winners are from other countries. The Lord's great love reaches far, wide, and deep. You're blessed, Susan!
Thank you again Susan - it's really great to look forward to receiving it. Don't worry about the delay. Interesting to read Reitha's comments on Andrew Murray.
Andrew Murray quite well known over here.
