My Mother-In-Law was steadfast in her devotion to the rules of The Bible and the traditions of the Church.

Today on Hugs from Heaven, I detail the altering religious practices of my late mother-in-law Ruth Brown in the hopes that you too can see the wisdom in her words.

A multi-instrumentalist and prolific songwriter, composer George Frederic Handel's career began early. By the time he was 10, he had mastered the organ, oboe, and violin.

Instant Takeaways
- Better late than never. Though he spent much of his life composing music, George Frederic Handel's greatest work wouldn't come until his 56th year.
