		<description><![CDATA[Today I am simply sharing the lyrics to a song written and performed by Sara Groves.&#160; I have no way to know what you are going through right now but God does.&#160; I hope these words touch your heart and give you hope as they have mine. It&#8217;s been a hard year But I&#8217;m climbing [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Last week I got a text from my husband saying that he had just stopped at our local bakery and bought a loaf of bread.&#160; It was still warm so he couldn’t resist.&#160; It was seven grain so I’m going to say it was healthy.&#160; There are few things more comforting to me than fresh [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Many of us probably made some sort of New Year’s resolution around dieting, eating healthier or somehow improving ourselves.&#160; Perhaps by now you have adjusted to eating less after the indulgence of the holiday season—to be honest, it’s really Thanksgiving all the way through New Year’s Day!&#160; Once you get back to eating “normal” again [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[How many of you panic when you hear there are only 12 shopping days until Christmas?&#160; I hate to shop so those words always make me feel stressed.&#160; I love giving gifts to those I love and care about but sometimes it ends up being a huge stressor finding the right gift.&#160; Every year I [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have a friend who has been facing some very challenging times with her family.&#160; As we have prayed and cried together we were naturally asking “Why?”&#160; Eventually we discovered that during our prayers we were, in essence, telling God how He could solve this situation for us.&#160; However, the situation seemed so hopeless that [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[After our big meal on Thanksgiving Day, my family joined in a game of Balderdash.&#160; Balderdash is a board game of bluffing and trivia (as defined by Wikipedia).&#160; It was the first time I had ever played.&#160; There were moments that I was laughing so hard that I could barely breathe.&#160; I had so much [...]]]></description>
