It’s been a long challenging week. I’ve let things that cause me tension take over my thoughts. That tension has manifested in my body. Feeling like I’m in a battle once again as I deal with neck and body pain. I couldn’t see beyond… Continue Reading “It is a prayer”

Deep in thought lately, needing time before putting it into words. Ever have times like that? Times where you just have to – need to – be a little quiet? I’m kind of loud sometimes. Life is loud lots of times. But God speaks… Continue Reading “Quiet…”
