And, through that, I got the chance to beta read her newest book, Stop the Rain . And . . . wow. Y'all need to read this. And, tomorrow, y'all finally can!

When they're finally old enough to join the Army, all their childhood dreams seem about to come true. But war wasn't supposed to be like this.

 Hey, y'all!  I hope you've enjoyed this blog tour so far! These girls' posts are so beautiful and hopeful!

Here goes!     Since I was little, my favorite Bible verse has been Isaiah 43:1.     (Feel free to download this image and the one below! You can use them as phone wallpapers - that's what I plan on doing with them!)     The wonderful, encouraging verse that comes right after this one, about God being with you through deep waters, seems to be quoted a lot more. But that wasn't the verse that I clung to for years. It was this one. Where God said that He had called me by name .    What hope could ever be greater than knowing that the God of the universe has called you by name?      When I think of hope and beauty and wonder...     O ne of my favorite classic heroines comes...

 Hey, y'all!  Short post today, but I had something I wanted to share with y'all! 💙      My amazing friend SawyerMarie had an idea...and we worked together on it until it turned into something awesome: a week-long blog tour!
