In December, I was asked to guest post for the Siesta Scripture Memory Team on the Living Proof Ministry blog. Our Siesta Mama, Beth Moore, posts on the 1st of each month and then invited guests from the blog community to participate. I was thrilled and nervous at the same time to accept the invitation!
