The Natural Beauty of Red Rock in Sedona

March 2, 2016 by Barbara

Sedona AZ red rock

Today I'm taking a little tour from the normal posts I usually share. I've been thinking of some of the places I have been fortunate to visit and this is one of my favorites;               Sedona, Arizona. The natural beauty of the red rock formations is simply beautiful and spectacular. While we lived in Phoenix, Arizona, we visited Sedona many times. I never got tired of it. Each time was like seeing it for the first time. Breathtaking.   Sedona is a beautiful drive from Continue Reading

Do you desire to grow closer to God in your Christian life? I do, but it seems as another day ends I’ve skimmed a few Bible verses or uttered a simple prayer.

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. In Him, I found an Anchor to keep me safe and secure. My passion is to share how He has rescued me and give others encouragement, as He has for me.
