MARIA'S MOMENTS
God blessed my recent trip to Longwood Gardens, a horticultural phenomenon over sprawling lush fields nestled in Chester County, Pennsylvania. As I was able to fellowship with church friends, I marveled at the latest ingenuity, Longwood Reimagined, the beautiful displays of vibrant flowers, spectacular water features, dazzling lights, fantastic landscapes, and riveting music. However, my favorite part was an unexpected yet amazing sunset. This year the themed, A Longwood Christmas, melted my heart and lifted my spirit. Here is just a sample of God's glory.

JESUS IS THE REASON
Jesus is the reason for this season. He's also the reason behind my writing. I write to help people, to inspire, to draw them closer to the Lord. Writing has also been therapeutic for me. This has been a very challenging year for me, and my books have helped me cope with terrifying situations. By the grace of God, I was equipped to handle crises with the knowledge I had acquired from researching my books. Ironically, I ended up living out distressing situations regarding weighty topics I have written about, allowing me to be uniquely qualified to handle heart-wrenching circumstances. I didn't see that coming in a million years. The good news was that I was able to positively impact those I love and get them on a path of healing. Not Again can put you on that path of healing too. God has once again proved how the Not Again saga was intended to be much more than entertaining. My blood, sweat, and tears were not in vain. Not Again, healing hearts one page at a time.
