Held Together

October 28, 2015 by Barbara

They have been married for many years. They get along good most of the time but still have an occasional dispute. And they can be doozies! During one of these disputes, you would think they were enemies. Someone needs to remind them who the real enemy is. It enters their home, sometimes unknown to them.

Welcome!


Hi Friend, Welcome to my corner of the online world, where I write to encourage and give hope. I believe everyone could use a dose of hope from time to time so whether you need hope for your marriage, your closet, or anything in between, I hope you find some encouragement here.

Having been through some hard situations, I understand what it's like to live hopeless, depressed, angry, and bitter until God rescued me in His Love and Grace.
