I haven’t spoken much about my personal life on this blog unless it’s a silly story to illustrate a point. I know many of you who read my blog know me but many of you don’t. During the time I’ve written this blog, most if not all, of my writing has been done during the [...]
Praise the Lord for what He has done through His people! Just like the women in the early church in Acts lifted up Paul and his ministry, we have done the same for Anne. I think we had all three types of women there last night. Just as Dorcas used her hands to make coats [...]
Ever had a few weeks where you just felt defeated? That’s where I’ve been the past couple of weeks. Dwelling in despair and anxiety. Wallowing in my self-pity and frustration.

It is a powerful book that I’m about halfway through reading. I had planned to do the giveaway after I had finished reading and reviewing it myself. One quote about bitterness that [...]
