I’ve been on the go all day today. Running errands, picking up things I need, going to the bank, escape-proofing the bunny cage, etc. I finally have a moment to stop as I sit in the school pick-up line.

The devil loves to speak lies to us…especially when we are most vulnerable. So many times, when my heart is hurting; when I’m missing someone who is no longer with us, I get this feeling of guilt. In the midst of my pain, I feel guilty because I have so many people God has blessed… Continue reading Don’t Listen To The Lies

Invest in people. Invest in the lives of others. With other investments, there’s always a chance of loss. But investing in people will ALWAYS provide great returns.
