Are you striving to be perfect in all things? Your job, parenthood, your role as a spouse or friend? Being a Christian? This is extremely exhausting and the weight is so cumbersome. I know… because this is something that I have struggled with for years. If you are saying this is you too, you are
Are you fighting with someone in your church? Maybe you disagree with how they feel about an issue, or you are mad about how they treated you or what they said to you. Sometimes, we don’t even tell the person at church we are angry at them or that they hurt us. But doing nothing
Recently, I went on a trip to visit my family and met an extended family member for the first time. Although he didn’t speak English, his actions spoke louder than words. He was so welcoming, helpful, and warm; he simply loved me, my family and everyone around him so much. Watching him, it made me
