(homeschooling was finishing, and life was changing)<br /><br />He answered very clearly that I was to encourage. Now that's my entire focus. I read about encouragement, and am writing about encouragement in marriage.<br /><br />I pray your 2013 is filled with many inspiring moments, happy surprises, and a sense of God's hand leading and guiding you!<br /><br />(ps - my OneWord for 2013 is Realize.
