Author: Beatrice Giesbrecht

I am a follower of Jesus, wife, stay-at-home, homeschooling mama to four rambunctious boys, writer, and trauma survivor. Since I was a little girl, I have loved words. Loved how when carefully chosen and put together they have the power to craft a story, paint a picture in the mind's eye, evoke emotion, and move to action. Words are a powerful gift that I do not take lightly. I have seen God do the impossible, bringing beauty from the most shattered things. I've experienced Him breathe life into dead dreams and pour hope into the parched desert of my soul. I pray that the words I share here will leave you encouraged, filled with hope, and renewed with purpose. Thanks for joining me on this journey.
