Distant

You’re wandering.  You’ve been trying to find your path but every time you feel like you’re on your feet, you stumble or a boulder blocks your journey.

Molten Chocolate Cake

You know what I love about Jesus?  He doesn’t give gifts according to what we DESERVE.  We are all sinners and we don’t deserve any of the good gifts that he offers us, yet he gives them because he GENUINELY LOVES us.  I was once working alongside a woman that I was ministering to whomContinue reading “Molten Chocolate Cake”
