Alsooo, sorry this post is late. I was on Animal Jam for a while, took a break, then prepped some stuff for dinner, then I just went through a bunch of old drafts on Blogger that I don't need anymore. I didn't realize I had so many.. o.O
Anyyyywhoooo, let's get going with todays post!

So, a couple of weeks ago I got an email from the Christian publishing company, W Publishing (it's somehow connected to Thomas Nelson). The content was pretty surprising. There was a couple of quizzes, one of which had a very inappropriate picture on it. I was pretty shocked, since it's a Christian publishing company. I called my mom over to the computer, and she was really shocked too.
She emailed the company, and the lady that replied was very apologetic. But the thing is, they were using that picture to try and attract people to the book they were trying to promote, which again, is very shocking. o.o
She said that we could have any book that they were trying to promote on the mail out. One of the books was I Can Only Imagine. The book about Bart Millard from MercyMe's (a Christian band) life. We saw the movie, and I loved it so much, that I got the book on my Kindle.
Even though I had the electronic version of the book, I wanted a physical copy too, aaaand was hoping it would be autographed. XD So we requested the book, and she said that she would send it out.
Buuuut a week went by, and the book never came. So about a week or so ago, my mom emailed her, but she was out of town. She emailed a secondary person, so the secondary person sent it out. I guess the first lady never did.
Yesterday it finally came in the mail! I quickly opened it, and immediately looked on the first page to see if there was an autograph.
And..
Well...

Here's todays Bible verse!
Psalm 102:17
He will listen to the prayers of the destitute. He will not reject their pleas.
God made you. Uniquely. Beautifully. Intentionally. Purposefully. Wonderfully.
Seeing the signature makes it sound even cooler!
