The new September issue of Guideposts magazine features a cover story by Angie Harmon, actress, TV star and mother about learning the virtues of patience. Why would someone in the fast-paced world of show business even care to think about being patient? Angie tells readers, however, that it’s in her personal life where being patient has given her the most rewards. Once thinking of herself as the “most impatient person on the planet,” Angie wanted to be married, have kids and kept wondering why that “right guy” hadn’t come along. Ex-NY Giant football player, Jason Sehorn, was that guy and when a mutual friend introduced them, Angie knew it right away. He was just what she’d waited for. Angie tells Guideposts readers that a happy family life with Jason, their two girls, Finley Faith and Avery Grace – and a third child on the way – has taught her that good things truly come to those who wait.
September’s Guideposts continues its inspiring new series about people who are surviving and living with cancer with a story by Tiffini Dingman-Grover of Sterling, VA who faced hopeless odds that her 8-year old son would survive a very aggressive form of cancer. The doubts, anger, fear and above all hope of a parent’s emotional journey are vividly brought to life in Tiffini’s personal story of her son’s ordeal. Stories that help round out Guideposts September issue include: Tennis star James Blake tells about the inspiration his father provided that helped make him a champion; the work of Farm Rescue volunteers to save a North Dakota family farm; a nurse’s dedication to helping heal New Orleans despite her 280 mile commute to work there; how books helped a daughter and step-dad bond; secrets to a long-lasting marriage from Guideposts co-founder the late Ruth Stafford Peale; a family project to build a Peace Table; one woman’s recollection of meeting Beatle John Lennon at her church; healthy and fun family meal planning for a whole week; how an American wife learned to cook her Italian husband’s favorite dishes… there’s even a great recipe for his mother’s spaghetti alla puttanesca; and much more.
