My guest today is Author Margaret Daley who has written over 60 books! Here’s the scoop about her latest and how her heroine reminds her of Ruth. Here’s Margaret:

“Alexa Michaels, the heroine in Love Lessons, my April Love Inspired book, is young and less than a year away from getting her teaching degree. But for her to even be a teacher meant she’d had to go against her father’s wishes. Her dad was a doctor and wanted her to follow in his footsteps. She couldn’t stand the sight of blood, so didn’t see how she could become a doctor. Besides, all her life she’d wanted to be a teacher. She’d always tried to please her father, but in this case she just couldn’t. Alexa ended up leaving home to pursue her dream, moving hundred of miles away and paying for her own way to college, which took longer for her to get her degree. But to her, she had done what she felt she was meant to do even if it took almost two years longer than if she’d let her father pay for her schooling and had gone to college full-time. It was important to her to do what her heart desired.”

Do you know a woman who had to fight the odds to do what she felt was her destiny? In the Bible I think of Ruth who left her country to follow her mother-in-law to a place where she was a foreigner. Life for her was a series of unfamiliar situations that couldn’t have made her feel confident, and yet she stayed with Naomi and fulfilled her destiny.”–Margaret
