Writing Morning Devotions for Maeve was peace and strength for me. In July of 2021, I was diagnosed with breast cancer. Due to COVID-19, I was predominantly homebound for nearly a year. Contracting COVID-19 would have postponed treatments, surgeries, and therapies; so I had to miss family gatherings, even Thanksgiving and Christmas.But mostly, I missed my six grandchildren who all live in the same area as I do. At some point, I started texting my oldest granddaughter, Maeve. I am an early riser, and every morning possible, I sent her a devotion. And that's how this book came to be.I wanted to leave a spiritual legacy by sharing the Bible stories that had always moved my heart. Each morning I had a sense of purpose that filled my soul and let me touch and be with my granddaughter. These devotions have comforted me, strengthened me, and literally carried me through a storm. It would be sweet and precious to me if they somehow helped somebody else too.
