Even if you’re still on the journey and don’t yet fully embrace the idea of God and prayer, I’ll bet there are times in your life that you wish you believed.

Read this heartfelt post from Shannon about a recent health scare in her family. In the comments I shared my thoughts and I hope you will, too!
I know, I really have to stop doing this. You know what I’m going to say… yes, I’m posting a link to another “Conversion Diary” post. But it’s all for selfish reasons – I want to be able to find these gems again easily when I need them. So here’s the latest that blew me […]
