Meaningful Monday


I could NOT put this book down. It is so InComprehensible what happened to her in such a ShoRt period of time. 91 DaYs...1 MiLLion people, killed. Her CouRage, and FaiTh in the Lord CaRRied her through deplorable conditions she WiTneSSed, HeaRd and LiVed.


Our political issues seem IrreLevant and SMall compared to what her government did. However, they did NOt start out that way. Be PraYerful in making DeCisions that pertain to everyday life and to big choices, such as a President to oversee our WonDerful country. We NEED to remember how BleSSed we are for the FreeDoms we HaVe! As a WoMan, I have a voice (not in a feminist kind of way)...I have the RIGht to bear ArMs...I am free to SpEak my mind, and I have the FrEEdom to WorShip how and wherever I may!
I am so GrateFul to read about a WoMan whose LoVe, CouRage, DeVoTIon, FoRgiveNess and FaiTh transcends time. I HoPe to never forget what I read and remember to keep the Lord close to my HeaRt at all times...
God Bless the USA!!
