		<description><![CDATA[It was one of those moments. You know, the kind where you can’t feel the lower half of your body. A young boy walked up and said, “Are you Cameron’s mom?” The way he said it &#8230; my motherly instinct knew he wasn’t asking because he was curious. Something was wrong. “Follow me,” he ordered, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Pain. We&#8217;ve all got it, and have all been there at one point or another. One of my favorite things about our God is He won&#8217;t let our pain go to waste. If we will allow Him, He will redeem it and make it beautiful. This is the story of my pain. I hope that [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Difficult and grueling, at times, has been the journey that I’ve encountered since I lost my dear husband Gene almost a year ago.  Talk about turning one’s world upside down, it was like taking all the life lessons and throwing them in a blender and pushing crush, puree and blend all at the same time.

		<description><![CDATA[Earlier this year, in February, I awoke in the middle of the night with intense pain in my right pelvic area. I am normally happy and healthy and other than labor and delivery I had never experienced a pain like that. I couldn&#8217;t imagine what it could be. It hadn&#8217;t subsided by dawn so I woke [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This past January Ben &#38; I visited good friends in the hospital just after they delivered their second child Vanya Sophia. Unfortunately, little Vanya was delivered stillborn at 34 weeks because the Umbilical chord had wrapped around her neck four times. Little Vanya’s parents were, and still are, devastated by the loss of their little [...]]]></description>

God does not give you more than you can handle &#8230; I have always wondered if these sayings were true. What made God think I could deal with all that He’d put on me? As the [...]]]></description>
