The author was born in Doublin, Georgia, and raised in Florida, where she received her education and earned a B.S. degree. After traveling over many states, she is now a resident of North Carolina. The author was inspired to write this book after her children were grown and it was laid on her heart that God had always been with her, even in her youth, and continuing through times in her life when she had no personal relationship with Him until her stay in Hawaii, where the author became a born-again Christian. As these spiritual short stories unfold, the author sincerely hopes that you will draw closer to God as you reflect on His presence in your life and enjoy your journey during the process.
