Finish Well
As I marveled at the glorious colors of the setting sun, the words “Finish Well” flashed through my mind.
As I watched the colors deepen and grow more vivid, it occurred to me that it was the contrast to the growing darkness that made them all the more brilliant. And my thoughts turned to my friend Kate as they have so often these past weeks, and how even in the darkest days of her illness her spirit shone so brightly.
Today, if you feel the darkness closing in on you, remember the glory of the sunset God desires to paint on the canvas of your life, remember his promise to never leave you or forsake you…
And finish well.

Faith, Hope and Love
Thank you to all who shared their ideas for my book signing on Friday, and to those who prayed me through it. (For those who don’t follow my FB updates, a dear writing friend had died the night before.)
I’m happy to report that the event was wonderfully attended. My local writing friends came out in full support in Kate’s stead, and I didn’t cry once. I had so much fun meeting new readers who’d read about the event in the newspaper.
Since Mondays are dedicated to character discussions related to Deep Cover, today, I’d like to talk about the dove pictured on the front cover.
