This book is dedicated to all those individuals who will read this book and respond to the call of the Heavenly Father, who holds all we need in His open palms. I pray that this book will bless your life and encourage you to seek Him.
To the world’s greatest husband, Joseph S. Homy: without you, where else would I be? It is such a privilege to be called your wife and friend. Thanks for being the humble, wise, and intelligent man that you are.
And to my mother, Sharon Taylor and Father Clifton L. Dillon, you are a source of inspiration to me.
