I recently wrote an article for my friend Wendi, about God enabling her to forgive the men who murdered her husband. Her incredible story has touched people’s hearts and caused them to ask the same question. Could I forgive someone who murdered my loved one? But here’s someone else’s true story. I didn’t write this post. But it caused me to put myself in his shoes and ask myself. How would I respond if, God forbid, that happened to me.

Consumed with Whom?
Wrote this a year ago, but the message still rings true.
Today, I swam upstream in a sea of shoppers. Browsing for the perfect Christmas gift.
