Vintage Books

I found out about Vintage Books through a tutoring event that my work hosted and Vintage Books had donated some books for people to take home with them. On Friday I finally had a chance to check them out for myself. I fell in love with this place immediately. It has a very strange and appealing charm to it that captivated me and made me not want to leave. I scored two books from Vintage books for only $3.79! So fortunately for me, one of those books was "The Screwtape Letters" by C. S. Lewis! The particular copy that I bought was printed in 1970 and on the inside actually has someone's name in it and is dated 1972. I find these books to be such a treasure; its a strange phenomenon that just by holding a book you can feel part of another time period. I would encourage all of you to visit this local book shop...keep them open! Here is a link to their site where you can find their address: http://www.vintage-books.com/

I have exactly the life that I pictured I would and the life that I wanted and planned for. Along the way I had a lot of hardships, but ultimately God still gave me what I wanted. What is baffling for me is that the devil can give me so much doubt and discontentment even in situations that I know are right for my life. I realized that there won't be a moment in my life where I will be perfectly content and be absolutely happy about every aspect in my life- not without a fight at least. Reading this book has showed me how actively I have to fight every day to stay alert and listen to the voice of God and tell myself truth instead of listening to the lies that the devil tries ...
