“I'll always say my prayers…
and if God doesn't answer them at once I shall know it's because
He's planning something better for me.”
He's planning something better for me.”
~ Johanna Spryi, excerpt from Heidi
I am sure we have all heard of the darling girl named "Heidi" who lived in the mountains but have you ever really read the book (watching the poor adaptions of Heidi on the screen is no replacement...)? It is a beautiful story of salvation! It shows how the sweet example of a young girl who learns about God changes the heart of her grandfather with one simple story… And what wonders take place after!
Scripture that summarizes the story:
"For this son of mine was dead and is alive again;
he was lost and is found."
~ Luke 15:24
This is an excellent choice for your Geography Journal.
This book takes place in Switzerland and Germany and would be a wonderful novel to read for your Geography Journal. Though it is probably geared toward 8-12 year olds, I believe women of all ages will love this heartwarming classic!
