Stacie, I just started reading your blog and I look forward to reading your archived posts. I also see that you are a big reader and I wanted to pass onto you a free book that I wrote about my journey to becoming a "sweetly broken" child of God. It's at sweetlybrokengirl.blogspot.com. I hope and pray that it helps draw others closer to God's healing love. Take care, God bless, and keep writing! – Heather K
