This is scary. So many times, this word comes to mind, but I’m never quite sure how to put something down on paper. Today, the word grace whispered to me, but I, again, chose to file the word for another time. Then, I went to do the scripture readings for the day. What was today’s… Continue reading Grace

Calling – Can you hear His voice calling to you?
I have fond memories of my childhood days growing up in a neighborhood full of simple rowhomes, but also a neighborhood rich in both loving families and great friends. Especially during the summer months, all my time was spent outside playing – hopscotch, roller skating (when you needed to use a key for your skates)… Continue reading Calling – Can you hear His voice calling to you?
