Actress Danica McKellar, star of many Hallmark and now Great American Family movies, tells a Godwink story that was a faith-builder for her as well as for each of us.

Kuma, my Great Pyrenees Service Dog and I were visiting a retirement home.

What she told us brought tears to her eyes... as well as all of us looking on.
Alex drove six hours from home and discovered he had a HOLE in his TIRE.
Worse... the last time his tires were changed back home, they mixed things up and gave him someone else's TIRE LOCK KEY.

You'll be amazed how ...
I wanted to believe in Godwinks ... tried to ...

Crowds outside Buckingham Palace heard that Queen Elizabeth had died.
Then, a double rainbow appeared in the sky... a sign of...One day I TOLD my MOM I wanted to go to L.A. and become a comedic actress.
I immediately realized that probably wasn’t a good idea. The LOOK on her face said, ‘Have you gone NUTS?’
My dream bubble BURST!
But, God had the last wink...
