Welcome! A first blog post.  A place to ponder on the goodness of an Almighty God. A place dedicated to all the wonderful ways that God demonstrates love; through people, through life experiences shared, through books, His creation and so much more.  A place to share inspiration and hope.  A place to talk about faith.  A place for truth, spoken in love. A place for creativity.  A place of grace. A place to share the journey.  May all who visit here be blessed and strengthened by God's presence in their life.  Thou wilt show me the path of life; in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures forevermore. Psalm 16:11
