I need to glean a bit more know-how in that regard. Perhaps your son will give you an external hard-drive for Mothers Day. ;)Mazzy Adamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03945841786696357456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2208627029605402728.post-39563852514655992016-05-06T20:31:59.920+10:002016-05-06T20:31:59.920+10:00Thanks Ruth.

I have a really thick file of bits and pieces I've printed from many sources, knowing they'll be encouraging and handy in the future. I'll think of them as my gleanings from now on. People's personal blogs are a bit like Boaz's field. Like you, I love the interesting and varied links Iola shares.Paula Vincehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02079952414990463270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2208627029605402728.post-83093320757705486872016-05-05T09:01:35.384+10:002016-05-05T09:01:35.384+10:00Love Ruth's story and the Biblical principle o...Love Ruth's story and the Biblical principle of gleaning - which at it's heart was a form of social security for the poorest and most vulnerable in Israel - not charity but God's provision for them. Great application to reading stories.Jeanette O'Haganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11057798704247611224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2208627029605402728.post-2931151643352598952016-05-05T08:34:07.077+10:002016-05-05T08:34:07.077+10:00Loved your post Mazzy.

I would love to do some studies in Creative Writing but don't have the resources for it, so have been doing my own gleaning over the last almost 10 years since God has called me to writing. I borrow books from our library and glean words of wisdom from them a little at a time. And of course, there's lots of writerly advice out there - again which I absorb from time to time. No one place for it - it's all out there! :) What I love best to glean though I say unashamedly, are spiritual treasures which God has been dropping lavishly into my hands in the last 42 years through the Word and the wisdom of others who walk with God! There is never a dearth of them either! :) Thanks for sharing Mazzy. Happy gleaning to you too.Anusha Atukoralahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00859837228901127984noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2208627029605402728.post-47728111862554139632016-05-05T01:06:53.616+10:002016-05-05T01:06:53.616+10:00I personally appreciate Iola Goulton's prolifi...I personally appreciate Iola Goulton's prolific gleanings. I learn so much from the many helpful links she posts on Facebook and from her Christian Editing Services newsletter. Bless you, Iola. I could name many helpful groups and people, but I want to give the rest of you a chance first!Mazzy Adamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03945841786696357456noreply@blogger.com
