“In Christ alone my hope is found…”
I love how God speaks to us through songs and how our bodies and souls are so integrated to respond to music. Given that my name is Melody, it would be easy to surmise that I am musically inclined and wouldn’t be a shame it if wasn’t so? Lol I’m glad it is. I…

CONFESSION: There’s something you MUST know about me.
It’s true. I can’t deny it. No matter what I do or how I look at it, the facts remain the same. I am an all-or-nothing type of girl. If I get an inkling of an idea, something catches my eye or sparks my interest, you’d better get out of the way because I’m going…
