  1. Hi Sugar,

    Loved this sharing over at Laced with Grace! I'm a back-drop person myself so I can relate. I had a bit different take on what may have been going on with Jeremiah before GOD called him in chapter 1 :)

    I enjoy your heart sharing ALWAYS. Thanks for your love and prayers. You have mine! Have a blessed Holy week!
