Thing One: Google Reader Replacement!
For those who have been looking for a replacement for Google Reader, look no further! Feedly.com has come to save us. It's formatted just like Reader, automatically transfers all of your RSS feeds, is actually more user-friendly than Reader, and takes less than five minutes to sign up. Amazing.
Thing Two: Book Rec!
I just finished a beautiful novel called The Art of Hearing Heartbeats by Jan-Philipp Sendker. The author is German, and although the book was translated into English, it lost none or very little of its craft of language, and I loved the voice throughout the novel--both sentimental and raw. Set in modern Burma, the book tells an unusual and intense love story full of passion, pain, and mystery, and leaves enough questions throughout that I didn't want to put it down. In fact, the next to last page surprised me despite the fact that I was trying to figure out part of the mystery all along. Many thanks to my sister-in-law for giving me this book; she and I both read it and both our copies are now loaned out.
Thing Three: Sermon Rec!
I've been listening to a lot of sermons lately for my devotional times each morning because often the only uninterrupted morning time I have is when I'm up a little before Moo trying to put on my face and clothes, which I can do while listening to a sermon. Anyway, this one in particular captured me this week and is worth your time if you have 30 minutes (or three blocks of 10 minutes, which is how I ended up listening to all of it). Follow the link above and choose the "Workers in the Vineyard" sermon from April 21 preached by Brian Salter.

Just listened to that sermon, and wow...talk about a divine appointment. Exactly what I needed to be reminded of -- amazingly convicted.
