Book Slots this week? KJBO, how can we help?

Hello ladies,

I'm looking forward to the Book Slots this week. Kimberlee, since you aren't feeling 100% - at least not every day, is there anything we can do to make hosting easier for you?

Can't wait to discuss Gilead. Finding "There Is A Balm In Gilead" after the conclusion of the book was very ... good. I love the word balm.

here's my favorite definition from a quick search:

balm - ointment, semisolid preparation (usually containing a medicine) applied externally
as a remedy or for soothing an irritation.

Gilead ...

Refrain:
There is a balm in Gilead
To make the wounded whole;
There is a balm in Gilead
To heal the sin sick soul.

Some times I feel discouraged,
And think my work’s in vain,
But then the Holy Spirit
Revives my soul again.

Refrain

If you can’t preach like Peter,
If you can’t pray like Paul,
Just tell the love of Jesus,
And say He died for all.

Refrain
