In this book, you will find short stories of laughter, family fun, and difficult moments from my life. These stories will remind you of God's goodness and blessings through times of depression and loneliness, and when God poured out great joy. This book gives you a place to write down your stories also, which will help you sort things out and make better sense of why some things happen. Like me, you may realize some things happened because God knew you would need that experience to help you later in life. These stories--and yours--will help you realize, most of all, that God has been there helping and blessing through thick and thin. Remembering will help you trust God more and more. It will cause you to be grateful to our Lord and Savior, which has always given me a better attitude and greater capacity for joy.
