When my mom passed away I thought: she was the only one who knew me before I was even born. But that’s not true. So many verses throughout the Bible speak of God knowing us from even before time. Don’t we all just want… Continue Reading “Always Known…”

Ever get wrapped up in all the mess? Angry or despairing? Heartbroken or lost? Too easy these days. The constant of fear, worry, the unknown – words and actions of others that seem out of control. How do we navigate? When all I want… Continue Reading “Passing Through…”
