Today I am honored to be Guest Posting over at my friend Shannon Geurin’s blog today for #FierceFriday. I encourage you to hop on over and visit, but not just because of my post. Shannon is an absolute warrior for Christ and her Friday Feature of Christian Bloggers will inspire you.
See you there!
Read it. Loved it. Love Shannon’s blog focus. I can so relate to your disaster year. Ours was 2012 when I was diagnosed with cancer. and then more. I stumbled in my faith; or staggered under the weight of it. God gently led me back. I am so glad that God answered your prayers and that you are a fierce warrior!
Thank you so much for your encouraging words April! I just love Shannon! She’s such a beautiful soul. I can only imagine what your trial must be like April, how beautiful that God has you sharing your story with the rest of the world about his love. That is true faith.
Wow…….God is God
Yes He is Tina! All the time!
