Isn't it amazing how quiet the voice of truth can be? All the lies try so hard to overpower us, but the voice of truth is there - quietly reassuring us. May you hear His voice and feel peace and encouragement.
I am blessed to be married to the love of my life, Joe, who also happens to be my best friend. Together, we co-founded Hope 4 The Wounded Educational Seminars in which Joe provides training on working with wounded children. I am the mother of nine...five conceived in my belly, four conceived in my heart. We have journeyed to our "heart children" by way of foster care, Ethiopia, US domestic, & China. I am seeking His will every day in this walk of faith that is my life. I hope 4 the wounded of this world...especially the children, but also you & me. It's an imperfect world, I'm an imperfect person, but I'm on this journey that God has blessed me with, so if you'd like to join me, I'd be honored to call you "friend".
