What is our Hope?

 Hello friends! It's been a long while since I've posted, but I thought I would jump over and share some blatantly honest thoughts with you all.  I've been struggling with so many emotions over the last few months. Fear. Peace. Joy. Hope. There are so many things I want to do, yet the question of if I'll get to do them. There are so many things I want to be, yet I wonder if I'll ever measure up.  I want to be a writer. I want to write stories that will change the world, that will shake a person to their core, and point them to my Savior. Yet there's the little niggle of fear in the back of my mind, the whisper that says, "You'll always be a fraud. You'll always have to put on a show."

  Hello, y'all! *takes a deep breath and prepares for a super long post* I have the privilege of taking part in the launch of yet another book! I present to you: Untold by Vanessa Hall! It is the third book in the "Grace Sufficient" series and I cannot wait to read it myself! Here's the description: You can only run for so long … Two years hasn’t erased the sting of betrayal and the shadow of the past, but Nikolai Alexandrov has finally found a way to live. Moscow, Russia, is the last place anyone would look for a rogue ex-CIA officer, and the members of Grace Baptist Church see beyond his past to the man he is now.
