What an honor it is for you to have this book in your hands! I feel blessed beyond measure to have completed this project. Blooming With Jesus started because my adult children asked me to write down all the silly sayings they grew up hearing. As I began to write them down, the Lord laid on my heart to connect the idioms to Scripture. These devotions are a glimpse into my life and real situations through the years but more importantly they reveal how the Holy Spirt empowers us to become stronger than we ever imagined and love others more deeply. As you journey with me through these pages, my prayer is your faith blossoms as you grow in your relationship with Jesus Christ.
