LETTING GO 4/9/2021 FRIDAY

I love GRACE! I love that faith tells me that God’s mercies are fresh and new each morning. I love that grace means forgiven and restored. It is a little harder for me to not only ponder, but to also give away all the stuff, physical, mental, emotional stuff that I have accumulated over theContinue reading “LETTING GO 4/9/2021 FRIDAY”

Don’t give up. That is one of the clear messages of The Bible; don’t give up.

LET GO AND DRAW CLOSE3.29.2021Monday

That story of the woman heading to the kitchen to get a cup of coffee, then seeing the pile of clothes she needs to take upstairs, so she stops to do that, but then she sees that the bathtub needs cleaning, so she stops to do that, and then she realizes that she needs aContinue reading “LET GO AND DRAW CLOSE3.29.2021Monday”
