Basil’s Blessings My Special Day with God
$16.99
Basil’s Blessings features a little green inchworm who loves God with all of his heart. He praises God every day for his blessings and God rewards Basil with endless joy. One bright sunny day Basil decides to travel to his favorite golden field of dandelions and “dustbunnies” (fluffy gray dandelion seeds). His journey is filled with praises to God with every step of his five pairs of feet. On the way, Basil passes a few friendly ants and enjoys the delicious fruits of Strawberry Heaven. He even stops to admire God’s creation, a pond bathed in sunlight. When he arrives at the bright yellow patch of dandelions, his happiness is overwhelming. Suddenly, he is joined by BB, a baby bluebird who hovers over him and then lands near him in the spacious dandelion and dustbunny field. Basil prays to God to warm BB’s heart to become his friend instead of becoming a tasty meal.
Will Basil and BB become friends? Will they share new adventures together? All the time Basil teaches BB about the wonder of a relationship with God. A delightful tale for children that shows Basil’s love for God and God’s love for Basil and how blessed we are when we make God part of our every day life.
“My relationship with God is the most important part of my life. I praise God every day and give my challenges to Him, trusting that they will have a good outcome. I want children to learn to love God in their every day lives and adventures and to praise God and trust Him.”

God has taught Krista many things through the course of these years of service. The most important message she wants to pass along to her readers is that God wants us to share our day with Him because He loves us so much.
