Fierce Beauty

I just wrote my first book review. I hope you will check out this book. For those who know me, you know I have read many many books in my life. I have a handful of favorites and I will have to say that I fell in love with Kim Meeder's writing style. Fierce Beauty ranks high on my favorite list.

As always, I appreciate you taking the time to read my blogs. I would have no reason to blog if you didn't take the time to read them.

This was my first book by Kim Meeder. I loved that she was very descriptive in her writing style. She really draws you in her world. It was refreshing to here her transperancy and realness in her own life. It was an added bonus to hear real life stories from others. I think we can really relate to others more than we realize. I was reading some stories and very thankful of my life because I didn't endure the pain they did. Then I was reading other stories and feeling like I was shafted in life. Because I didn't get to experience what they did. I can say that many emotions were stirred up while I read her book. It was an excellent book, actually one of my favorites and I am an avid reader. I love to gain knowledge, wisdom, and revelation from readers. I am excited to read her other book, Hope Rising. I have been sharing quotes on facebook and revelation I have gleaned with my friends.

The way she shared her own weaknesses brought comfort and ease. You feel like you know Kim. She does a fabulous job drawing you into the book. I enjoyed the Bible verses through out the book and the poems. I really enjoyed her sharing her own visions and dreams in the book too.

I have many underlined words and stars marked in my book. I am so thankful I chose this book. I was really intrigued by the cover as well. I look forward to sharing my book with others and then hearing what revelation they gleaned from the book. The greatest battle women fight is within. Kim truly gives you a healthy perspective on the real meaning of beauty.

I received this book for free from WaterBrook Multnomah Publishing Group for this review.

One of my favorite things I loved about her book was she gets the Warrior thing. Beautiful Warriors is my cause and calling in life. The cover has a sword on the front. Which told me, I had to read this book.

I wanted to share one of my favorite quotes with all of you.

"But when we put our peace, hope, love, and salvation in Jesus Christ alone, its like putting them into a backpack and slinging them into Heaven. They're eternally safe. Nothing in the world can touch them. There is no feeling, no event, no disease, no confrontation, no collapse or catastrophe this life can deal out that can steal what Jesus Christ gave His life to secure for us."

Blessings and Love
