​A North Carolina
Prayer of
​Thankfulness
​

  by Brian E. Faulkner  

If you've ever come across a compelling scene somewhere in our state and given quiet thanks for it, you're sure to appreciate Carolina Prayer.  Similar moments thread their way through the pages of this inspiring little book of thankfulness, reminding readers of memories made during their travels in North Carolina.

The Blue Ridge mountains beckoned from an overlook in the Laurel Springs area close to the Continental Divide, where morning mists made it seem as if the mountains went on forever ... and perhaps they do.

The tomatoes below were offered for sale by the roadside and practically shouted to have their portrait taken. The stone boots were part of a monument in a small town park, stark reminder of the men and women who sacrificed their lives in the service of our state and country. The flag stood beside a combination vintage shop and ice cream parlor our family has enjoyed from time to time on the way to the beach.

The words to Carolina Prayer were given to the author one morning during the quiet time just before dawn.  It was as if the Lord wanted to remind him ... and perhaps you ... that there is no place on Earth quite like North Carolina!  

​Selecting the pictures took a lot longer!
