But it wasn’t until recently that I knew how to answer them. For the majority of my… Read More How Does God Show You His Grace?
Asking God to reveal Himself to you, I believe, is a prayer He will always gladly answer. Lately I have been feeling like the Lord led me to this place and just left me here. I know that is not true and that the Truth is that He will never leave me or forsake me… Read More His Presence is Our Present

Well, the cat is out of the bag. I struggle with depression and anxiety, and they have been swingin at me left and right for the past few months.
