Yes, I'm an Unglued Fire Tiger!

I don’t often take the time out to officially review a book, but this is one that I thought was worth it.

This last week has been very emotionally charged for me, and while there were other *girl* factors involved in the reality that tears were never far away, pain, stress, and frustration left me feeling like I was about to come well and truly unglued. Reading this book about dealing with our emotions for God’s glory rather than in our own selfish way was such a good thing for me to hear at that point. Having to honestly sit down and think about how I react to different people and situations was a very good exercise for me. I also love the concept of ‘imperfect progress’—not that it’s okay to not progress, but that progress is a slow processes in which we become more like the Lord Jesus. May I continue to walk in the light of His ways, and deal with my all-to-often surging emotions in ways that bring honor and glory to my Savior.

On an unrelated note, we randomly got on the subject of the Chinese zodiac tonight, and it turns out that I am not just a tiger (which I knew), but I am a FIRE Tiger! Rawr!
