This book entitled "God Moments for You" authored by Carolyn Larsen was given me by a very close friend and his wonderful mother as a graduation present. I found myself flipping through the pages tonight and thought I should share the beautiful reminders and words of God outlined in this book. These are merely a few of the verses that jumped out at me. Because don't we all need words of wisdom from the Word of God?
