In the Morning When I Rise is a testament to the Lord for all he has done and continues to do. It is my response to all who have asked how I have so much faith and trust in this unseen God when all manner of foolishness is afoot. I have faith because he is always with me and us.

I used to love the rattle and whoosh of my grandma's buttons as they scattered from their Quality Street tin. An inlaid wooden chest the size of a shoe box holds Lynn Knight's button collection. A collection that has been passed down through three generations of women: a chunky '60s-era toggle from a favourite coat, three tiny pearl buttons from her mother's first dress after she was adopted as a baby, a jet button from a time of Victorian mourning. Each button tells a story.
