Overview

Crosses and clouds. Powerful prose. Sublime color images. Gain a deeper relationship with God through a graceful blend of divine imagery and heartfelt words of devotion.

Welcome to a journey brimming with belief, hope, and faith. The Cross and clouds serve as central characters, captured by chance encounters and an imaginative eye. Each page reminds us that when viewed through the proper lens even the most mundane things in life can be extraordinary.

The Cross represents love, commitment, and finality. Clouds represent heaven, dreams, and imagination. A devotional narrative weaves the two motifs together, allowing us to see God in our everyday lives and providing a certainty of faith.

What started as a way to remember her love of rural America and her grandparent's farm morphed into Amy Bretall taking photos of crosses as she further developed her faith in her mid-forties.

The power of Amy's prayers unfolded as she began seeing patterns of faith appear in her daily activities by finding "everyday" crosses.Born and raised in Missouri, Amy resides in Kansas City, Missouri. She has a twenty-plus year career in human resources, where she held various senior-level management positions.
