Prayer Softens Reality

#friendship #prayer

We sat at tables pushed together for our critique group meeting. The group welcomed me after a prolonged absence during my mother’s illness, and her recent passing. The group offered condolences and related their prayers for my heart.

My friend, Susie, nodded, “And how are you holding up? We were concerned about you.”

I feel numb. But not from grief. “I’m doing fairly well.” I sipped my caramel coffee with whipped cream on top. “I definitely felt your prayers. Maybe that’s why I feel lifted above the loss and pain. Prayer softens reality.”

I’m E.V. Sparrow

Coffee imbiber, chocolate connoisseur (sugar free please, so I don’t have to give it up), and the studier of personalities. My current book series of 3 is historical fiction inspired by my quirky great grandfather on my dad’s side of the family tree. On October 27, 2024, The BookFest Awards bestowed First Place in General Historical Fiction upon it! Stunningly unexpected.

Book 2 focuses on his sister’s life, and Book 3 reveals some of his son’s life.

According to many rumors, authors never stop learning. I’m studying and reading cozy mysteries for future projects. I’ve convinced myself I’ve adjusted to the black hole of writing and the author’s life. Why not add more challenges? What could happen?

Glad you’ve visited my site, and hope you’re intrigued enough for us to connect further on social media.
