\"backintime\"<\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

It is my habit at this point in the year to highlight my\u00a0most popular posts of the past year. This is based on how many times these posts have been viewed throughout the year. \u00a0It is a good reminder that what is new is not always what is best, since none of these posts were written this year! As such, it is a walk down memory lane, or a peek back in time.<\/p>\n

I know that many\u00a0of these choices will be be heavily influenced by google algorithms. But I trust that behind the computer wizardry, the hand of a compassionate creator has been pointing people to posts that will help them. \u00a0I offer this list in the hope that in a quiet moment, some of these might encourage your hope right now.<\/p>\n
