Hi Lily,
My week has been busy at work and finding time to write is tough, but I am still pressing through. How was your week?

I haven’t read those, but I did read Cross and the Switchblade by David Wilkerson many years ago as well as The Hiding Place by Corrie Ten Boom.

Thank you, Lily! Prayers are always appreciated. It was tough losing mom. I am still processing it. I am on Story Embers only now and then lately. Sometimes it is just better for me to find the quiet away from social media. The Lord seems more present in the stillness times, even though I know He never leaves or forsakes us. It is just that…[Read more]
