When I said, “My foot is slipping,” your unfailing love, LORD, supported me.
…The LORD has become my fortress,
    and my God the rock in whom I take refuge. Psalm 94:18,22

WRITER & BLOGGER

I’m Jill Penrod, novelist, nonfiction writer, and blogger. This site is about living a full yet surrendered life in Christ. I struggle with anxiety, so I write about that, too. Come for encouragement, resources, and peace. Welcome!

He brought me up out of a horrible pit,
Out of the miry clay,
And set my feet upon a rock,
And established my steps.
…Many will see it and fear,
And will trust in the Lord.

David, Psalm 40:2, 3b
