[Then your light will shine] Have you been thinking about what you can do this month to shine light into someone's life? Feeding the hungry has been on my mind. Many of us are so blessed to have roofs over our heads, food on our tables, and family to share it with, while others don't … Continue reading Feed the Hungry
Above All Names

I Won’t Be Afraid To Be Me
[Get behind me, Satan!] We all know that words are powerful. We've been built up by them, and we've been cut down by them.

[I have set you an example] I had a painful lesson last Thursday. As I was out power washing in flip flops, I shot myself in the foot. This isn't an idiom. I litterally shot myself in the foot.
