Letting God Heal Your Hurt
I'm baaaaaack! :)This is a devotional I wrote going on almost two years ago. The events (the friend that called me in tears) behind this devotional and another similar one are actually the bases for my first novel, which I'm still currently working on.

Then I saw this weathered and much older looking bark on this tree, and I *had* to stop to take another picture:I had never, ever seen a tree like this one, so I *had* to take a picture:Well, I actually took two, because, like I said, I've never, ever seen a tree like this before. I've felt like this before though, like almost all the bark is gone.When I ... Read More about Me and The Trees
