Now, before we go on, let’s define this word “ inventory”. Yep, what a lousy time to go to a place you really want to be in, but you can’t, because they were shut down to take stock. You see, this was the time in which they traditionally conducted their inventory. And it suddenly dawned on me that this time wasn’t a good time to go. Usually, it would be full of parents, guardians and kids, but this time there was no one. Me and the girls, as usual, went to the library, however, this time was different when we got there. But there’s one particular memory about our library trips that I remember most. I would take them, they would find their particular book and I would find mine. Well, unlike many kids today, my children spent a lot of time at the public library. I pushed them hard to read, and to this day, nothing has changed, they still love to read ( but for some reason, they refuse to give me book reports any longer) go figure. And I made sure that they read everything from Encyclopedias, to Dictionary’s, to Novels, to Magazines and Newspapers. They had to read a book, and give me a book report, yes, even as little tots! I always wanted them to be educated, intelligent and in the know. I love reading books! And when my daughters were little, I would always make sure that they had reading time at home. Yes, I shall again praise him for his help.” (TLB)Īnyone that knows me knows that I am a bookaholic! I read everything! There is absolutely no time in which there isn’t a book in my hand, on my desk, in my bag, or on my nightstand. Take courage, my soul! Do you remember those times (but how could you ever forget them!) when you led a great procession to the Temple on festival days, singing with joy, praising the Lord? Why then be downcast? Why be discouraged and sad? Hope in God! I shall yet praise him again. “Where is this God of yours?” they scoff. Where can I find him to come and stand before him? Day and night I weep for his help, and all the while my enemies taunt me. Psalm 42:1-5, “As the deer pants for water, so I long for you, O God.
