Journey’s End

Window or aisle?

/ Dora Hiers

When I consider your heavens,
the work of your fingers,
the moon and the stars,
which You have set in place,
what is man that you are mindful of him,
the son of man that you care for him? (Ps 8:3-4 NIV)

Do you prefer a window or aisle seat when you fly?

Me?
I love to plaster my face against the window and watch the cars grow smaller until they look like tiny ants from several thousand feet in the air.
Until all I can see is blue sky.
Endless universe.

In the big scheme of things, we’re small, insignificant. Little blips.
Yet God cares for us and loves us beyond what we can possibly imagine. 
Amazing, isn’t it?

My Review of Cassie’s Wedding Dress by Clare Revell

/ Dora Hiers / 2 Comments

When was the last time you read a book about an ex-jockey? Or a royal wedding? Yeah. Me, too. I was intrigued from the start. 

Clare Revell takes you on a sweet ride in Cassie’s Wedding Dress. You’ll meet characters struggling with real issues, like Cassie Hinton, an ex-jockey battling bitterness and reeling in her faith, and Jack Chambers, a single father doing his best to raise his daughter while still trying to come to grips with his wife’s death.

When long-time friends Jack and Cassie reconnect, you think the ride is almost over, but Ms. Revell has a few surprises left in this short, sweet, and emotionally satisfying story. I’ll be watching for Clare Revell’s next book. Five stars for Cassie’s Wedding Dress!

Check out the blurb:

Steeplechase jockey Cassie Hinton’s dream was to walk down the aisle in her medieval wedding gown to become Mrs. Jack Chambers. Injured in the Grand National, she returns home…only to find Jack is now the Pastor of her parent’s church. Jack Chambers, now a widower and single parent, still has feelings for Cassie, but she sees him as nothing more than a Pastor. Even if he could change her mind, there is still his position to consider. With the Royal Wedding fast approaching, Cassie makes her dress, little dreaming of the consequences of doing so.
