YIKES … it’s Valentine’s Week, and believe it or not, despite being a romance writer, I have never put much stock in Valentine’s Day.
To me, love is something we should be giving away every day of the year because God knows that sometimes it’s in short supply in our world. So I wanted to just pop in today to give you a few fun things that made me smile, made me cry, and touched my heart, all love-related. May each one be a hug from me to you!
1.) First, I wanted to let you know that my dear friend and mentor, Joy Bollinger, has posted another anointed article on my blog called The Promise Keeper, so I hope you take the time to read it. Just scroll down till you get to the February posting and be blessed!
2. ) Secondly, a big hug to a reader friend of mine, Ms. Linda Finn, who sent me a link to an article entitled Eight Health Benefits of Kissing that I thought was fun, especially point #5 where you can burn calories by kissing! Now that’s the kind of weight-loss program I want to be on!! 😉
3.) Another good friend, Sue Hamilton, sent me a Billy Graham video that reduced me to tears (not a particularly difficult thing to do with this CDQ, but a touching piece, nonetheless), so I hope you will check it.
4.) Finally, before I disappear from the promo scene till next fall when Surprised by Love comes out (cover reveal coming on Journal Jots on 2/21 hopefully), I have a handful of giveaways left where you can win your choice of any of my books, so take advantage!
