Promises, Promises…
When I was little girl my friends and I would often say to each other: ‘Promise?’ An expectation that whatever we just told each other, we would follow through. Little girl years are a great learning ground for life – not all promises are kept.… Continue Reading “Promises, Promises…”
Is that all?
We pray – asking for healing, for finances, for brokenness, for relationships. Believing?? For God nothing is impossible – but don’t we pray like maybe He can’t/won’t? The truth is, for those who call on Jesus the Savior of the world: healing – if not now, then… Continue Reading “Is that all?”
