Improving my love of life…. through loving God, self and others
Ever been told you have a critical spirit? I have, not by a person, but God has convicted me of it time and again. If you tend to look at something - a performance, the layout of a store, a beautiful scene, the efficiency of a group working together - and say this is really... Continue Reading →
It is that time again, the season to be thinking of all the ways to improve in life with New Year’s resolutions, when in reality maybe we need New Life resolutions. I don’t need lofty goals at the beginning of the year that... Continue Reading →
