Welcome to the Truth and Grace (T.A.G.) Blog: a place where women can connect with other women and encourage and support one another. We want this blog to be a positive place where all is done in love according to I Corinthians 16:14 which says, "Let all that you do be done in love." (NASB) We welcome you to this blog and hope that it will be a source of encouragement to you.

~ Holding on to Hope and Faith ~

A couple of days ago, I was made aware of the passing of the son of a friend of mine from years ago.  I remember this child when he was a little boy.  I remember his mom always being an upbeat, happy person.  My husband found out that this lady has a blog and so I went to her blog and checked it out.  This morning, I read the most touching, emotion-filled post.  She talked about the time right before her son's passing and even the moments of his passing and afterwards.  Tears filled my eyes as I read her words and even now as I write this post.  Her son had battled cancer for several years and passed away at the age 13.  As she talked about her family, I recalled faces of some of their children and recalled names mentioned. 


This family is filled with hope and faith.  Hope and faith just exude off the page of her words in that post.  I am reminded that God tells us He will never leave us nor forsake us.  He is always with us and I know His presence is strong with this family right now.  As she shared precious moments her family spent together with this child, I am reminded that God is the maker of EVERY moment.  He made everything.  He's the creator of this child and this child has gone to meet his Creator.  As I was sitting at the desk this morning preparing for school and listening to some praise music, the song Adonai came on.  As the singer sang the words, I joined in.  God is our Adonai.  He is THE Creator of ALL things. 


Tim and Tammy, you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.  I am posting this video for you.  God is your Adonai - the Father of your hope and freedom.  He's right there with you listening to your cries and comforting your hearts and souls.  This video is also for all of you out there that need to know or be reminded that God is the Maker of every moment and He hears our cries.  May you be encouraged.

~ All About Me ~


I grew up in a ministry family. The daughter of a preacher, I definitely fit the typical mold of a preacher’s kid. I have had many life experiences including being a pregnant teen and single mom, experiencing divorce, and more. All of my life experiences, good and bad, have molded me into the person I am today. I have an intense desire to see women live in the freedom Christ came to give them. I myself know the prison of bondage and the liberation of Christ.
