31By faith the prostitute Rahab, because she welcomed the spies, was not killed with those who were disobedient.[a]
Hebrews 11:31 NIV
The story of Rahab unfolds in the book of Joshua, so if you have a chance, read it. Her story is amazing. She is truly a testimony of the power of God's grace. He transformed her from a prostitute, a no body into a warrior, and a woman mentioned with Sarah. Her past slate was wiped clean. I know I have been the recipient of God's amazing grace. We are truly transformed and made new when we allow Him to take over. Amazing grace that saved a wretch like me. My chains are gone, and I have been set free!

This started as a way for Stacy and I to focus our attentions on Things From Above instead of the distractions, heart aches, disappointments, and false truths the world throws our way. I hope that through our sharings, all who read will be able to come closer to understanding the fullness of God's amazing love. ~Tamara
