Most of my life I have felt left out, looked over, and that I didn’t really fit in or belong. Some of this was because I moved so many times during my school years. I was always trying to fit into a new crowd of people who already had their cliques. And I was… Continue reading Ever Feel Like You don’t Belong?
Guide me in Your truth and teach me, For You are the God of my salvation; For You (and only You) I wait (expectantly) all the day long.

Always give thanks to Father God for all things and every person… Continue reading Sing Your Heart’s Song!

Do you know what our first priority is? To love God. Not try harder or work harder or strive to get it right to be enough for Him. Just simply love Him. It’s all He ever wants from us. Really. Just love Him. Like a little child loves a parent. They don’t work hard at… Continue reading Priority #1
I wanted to tell you that I appreciate you. Is it weird that I think about my readers during the day? Perhaps that's what bloggers do.
