Grace, Lord … Your grace. So undeserved and yet even in my messiest of places Your grace abounds. Your presence comforts me. Your hand provides for me. Your shield protects me. Blessed are You, O Lord.

God used the tragedy of massive gunshot wounds to reveal His love to Maureen and now she lives to tell of His glory and faithfulness. I’m sure the words of her heart will touch you.

A few months ago the Lord, in His goodness, crossed my path with Lisa Tindal.

Lisa is precious. In fact, each time I think of her, precious is the word the Lord gives me.
