Why Beautiful Moments for Christian Women?

The Beautiful Moments of our lives reassure us of our value in the eyes of God and those close to us! But we don’t live in beautiful moments most of the time each day. We face miseries, messiness, and adversity in many other moments, but I’ve learned that God works to turn those adverse situations into something beautiful.
