This month's Gabby Mom review is about Eternal Encouragement Magazine
which is the foundation of Eternal Encouragement.
I was so excited share the magazine with you because it's always an encouragement (go figure!). Each article gives you a challenge, an idea, or a blessing, and yet, is short enough that you don't have to invest a lot of time at one sitting. I find that very important as a stay-at-home, homeschooling mom. I don't have long segments of time in which to peruse magazines, so being able to receive something of value even in short stints is a benefit.
Now, I have to admit, I was just a little more excited than usual when I received this Spring 2012 issue. You see, it is the first time I have written for the printed/digital version of Eternal Encouragement Magazine. It was such an honor to have the piece that I wrote be considered substantial enough to be included.
Needless to say, I handled my copy with kid gloves. After all, I had to keep it nice since my article was in it. It was immaculate until my daughter spilled coffee all over it! Then my mom wanted to take it to show her friends, but I explained that it was my only copy, and I still needed to write my review. I set it aside. It fell on the floor (which if you've read the article, you'll totally understand). My husband was helping me out and took out the trash...after he picked my magazine off the floor and put it in the trash bag.
{sigh} God definitely has a way of keeping me humble and in my place!
Now, I also have had the honor of having things published in the new EE Etc. which is a new online, web-magazine which comes out eight times a year. It comes with a subscription to Eternal Encouragement. The magazine comes out quarterly in your choice of either the print or digital version. Now, you also get a full magazine's worth of articles online the other eight months of the year, as well! Encouragement every month of the year. Just go HERE to subscribe.
And please don't let the fact that I've written a couple of articles discourage you from reading the magazine. The other ladies who write for Eternal Encouragement are actually godly woman to whom you can look up and from whom you can learn!
But remember to keep your coffee away from my article!
I received this product for free in exchange for a honest review.
