I just want to say, I love our church! It’s not really the place we go but the people. Never has there been a time in my life when I have felt more connected to a group of people. I just have to praise God for the friends He has brought in our lives throughout [...]
So thanks to my dear encouraging friends Monica and Lauren I have decided to sell my paintings. I have always enjoyed painting. I can’t believe people would actually pay for it but I am more than willing to let them ; ). They really are great teachers gifts and birthday presents and with Christmas [...]
Something I have been struggling with lately is spending consistent, alone time with God in the morning. Some how along the way I started sleeping later, starting work earlier and before I knew it our time special time together has become rare.
