His Promise for the Here and Now ~ #Five Minute Friday
Looking back at last summer, I see it differently than when I was living it. At the time, my moments felt heavy and air seemed difficult to breathe. Emotions affected our days and our imaginations laid out scenarios that never quite happened in the way time played them out. Time has a way of changing how we … Continue reading
As much as I try, I just can’t do it

I’m reminded of those amusement park river rafting rides. The ones where we sit in the large round inner tube with 6 to 8 seats with a wheel in … Continue reading
