I am a blessed wife, and mother of three precious children. Although English and grammar were never my cup of tea, I have felt an unquenchable burdened to record and share how the Grace of God has transformed my life . As a young girl I vividly remember an ever-growing collection of notebooks in my father’s bookshelves. My father never let a single day pass without recording an insight from scripture, prayer requests answered or made, or a blessing he received from God. “Jody, every person has a life story” he told me countless times, and he encourage me to journal and record my story. God is at work in our life and if we don’t record his marvelous works, we will forget “Red sea experiences” and miss countless blessings.
