Ribbons, Lace, and Moments of Grace: Inspiration for the Mother of the Bride

 Take a major life transition, infuse it with every imaginable emotion, sprinkle it with 1,001 must-be-made-now decisions, and what do you have?

A wedding.

You're walking alongside your daughter as she dreams, plans, and organizes. You laugh and you cry. A lot. As you wade through the chaos, are you tempted to huddle in a corner with a box of chocolates?

This unique season doesn't have to bring on food binges and panic attacks. With the Lord's guidance, it can be an opportunity to walk with God in a fresh way.

Through Scripture, prayers, and the personal stories of women who've been there, Ribbons, Lace, and Moments of Grace encourages and uplifts the mother of the bride.

With insight and humor, Thomas reveals how God's peace and love can flow through you to your husband, your daughter, your future son-in-law, and others involved in this beautiful and sacred event.
Hi! It's a joy to connect! I'm a Jesus-follower, wife, mom, grammy, author, speaker, and Peanut M&M's enthusiast. My goal is to write encouraging and inspirational material to help readers keep a Jesus heart in this sometimes upside-down world.
