When we proclaim the truth, we should always keep in mind that it is God who changes minds and hearts, not any eloquence or persuasiveness that we possess.

    Hello Emily! Entirely off-topic, but typed nonetheless, I do hope you are planning to head up the Homemade Christmas Meme this year as well (please, please?!?) I enjoyed your posts last year (even though I couldn’t participate because of a move) and now, am gleaning wonderful ideas for THIS year. I have resolved to make EVERY SINGLE THING that I give this year, and being a mother of three, that means I have to start NOW. So, I am feeling like a mighty sweaty Santa in this August heat as I make plans and lists and begin the crafting.

    As always, I am inspired by your maturity and love of spiritual things. Be well!
