Life is a tapestry of both beauty and chaos, woven through the relational experiences in which we engage, both intentionally and unintentionally. These relationships are the mirrors of who we are reflecting back to us the face of who we are to become. I am a daughter, sister, wife, mother, nurse, friend and woman of God whose tapestry has been created through the loving mercy and grace of God's hand, the wisdom gleaned reflected back to me through interactional and relational blessings. This writing is my gift to all those who bring me that of which I most desire...the unending faith, hope and love of Jesus Christ, flowing within me, around me and from me. "Within God's mercy, love, and grace, we are held and led, our stronghold now solid, the rock of our salvation becoming the glory of our days." (Mary Elizabeth Kass)
