		<description><![CDATA[Have you ever been overwhelmed with thoughts compelling you to do something that seems absolutely ridiculous? (Get your mind out of the gutter people, I&#8217;m talking about acts of kindness here.) Recently, I heard Beth Moore tell her &#8220;hairbrush story&#8221; and was reminded of a very similar experience I had. In Beth&#8217;s story, she was [...]]]></description>

When it rains all day, I don&#8217;t seem to pay much attention to it. But when it suddenly goes from full sunshine to a torrential downpour in the span of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[My husband and I are completely opposite: he frequently crawls into bed just a short time before my alarm goes off. He thoroughly enjoys the quiet night-time hours to work, play, or relax. I find my most productive moments are those just after the sun rises. What can I say, opposites attract . This has [...]]]></description>

But at an after Christmas sale 6 weeks ago, I bought two amaryllis bulbs. At the time, I put them in my cart [...]]]></description>

My mom mentioned he made the decision after she told him that the horse I painted in college was, in fact, Secretariat. Sixteen years [...]]]></description>

As a mom of girls, I&#8217;ve spent a fair amount of time thinking and praying about their future spouses. Of course I pray they will each find a Godly man who [...]]]></description>

(Don&#8217;t worry, it&#8217;ll make sense when you get there.) But before that, I want to tell you a little about how I got here, because Angie plays a part in this story.
