walking by faith and dedicated to lifting others up.i use this space to share reflections on gods grace and practical ways we can show up for one another in our daily lives. my goal is to leave every reader a little more hopeful than I found them.

Hannah Reed believed in God. She just wasn’t sure she believed He was listening anymore. When the prayer she was sure would change everything is met with silence, Hannah is forced to confront a faith she no longer recognizes. Still attending church, still singing the songs, still saying the words—she quietly wrestles with disappointment, grief, and the fear that hope might hurt more than doubt. The Prayer That Changed Nothing is a raw, faith-filled story for anyone who has prayed sincerely and wondered why heaven felt quiet afterward. This is not a story about losing faith—but about discovering God in the silence we never expected.

When faith fractures, silence can feel like abandonment. After a public failure drives her away from the church and the life she once trusted, Mara Collins returns to the small town she swore she’d never see again. Grace Hollow remembers everything—especially what she tried to forget. Still believing in God but no longer trusting Him, Mara navigates grief, regret, and the quiet ache of unanswered prayers. As she’s pulled back into the lives of others who are hurting, Mara begins to discover that God’s work doesn’t always arrive loudly—or on our terms. Sometimes redemption begins not with certainty, but with staying present long enough to hear hope whisper again.
