You know how sometimes you’ll ask God to reveal a part of his heart to you? And then He does? In unexpected ways? Maybe it’s the fact that Father’s Day was Sunday.

Post Father’s Day Musings
Yesterday was Father’s Day. I’ve been surrounded by amazing men in my life, and I’m grateful. My Grandpa C. always had a big smile and hug for his grandkids.

Memorial Day and 3 Ways to Honor Veterans
On May 30, 1868, a group of Union veterans held the first Decoration Day (now called Memorial Day). They picked that day because they believed that flowers would be in bloom around the country. The purpose of Decoration Day? To honor and remember the men who fought and died on both sides of the Civil War. This weekend Memorial Day …
Shadowed by Grace in FIRST Magazine
Many times along this writing journey I have been surprised by God making a way where there is no way. This week that happened yet again, when I found a review of Shadowed by Grace in First for women.
