I was having spiritual issues this week and my writer Diva friend, Inez Kelley suggested this TT for me. Thank you soooo much Inez, you are awesome! BIG HUGS!

Peter – Between a Rock and a Hard Place
Matthew/Levi – Taxing Love
Philip – Follow your Heart
Andrew – Fishing for Love in all the Wrong Places
Thomas – The Doubter and The Debutant
Judas Iscariot – Betrayed by Love
James – Son of Thunder
Simon – Zealous Lover
Jude/Thaddues – Brother Mine
James the Less – Less is More
John – Revelations of the Heart
Bartholomew/ Nathanael – Forget Me Not
Mary Magdalene - The Millionaire Sheik’s Not So Virgin Bride

Friends really know how to make you smile. Girlfriends are a gift from God, and the beauty within them is His reflection.

Who are these men?

More importantly... who is the photographer of each of these photos?
