“This was a lovely way to bring grace back in to my life (I took this during the "safer at home" environment related ot the COVID 19 pandemic). It brought me back to what really matters and provided space for me to get closer to my heart when things were quite uncertain. In better times, I can see this being as powerful as well. Easy, meaningful steps that meet people where they are-lovelly!”
