“But they that wait upon the Lord…” Isaiah 40:31 (KJV) This has always been a special verse to me, mostly because my mom loved it. She waited, always, on the Lord to move before she did anything. But I read the verse a few days ago and I read it differently. “They that wait upon … Continue reading But They That Wait

Lost
Nothing is ‘by chance’. I think of my own life and how every person is carefully placed. Timing and circumstances align just so to orchestrate what seems like random events. That’s the thing… Our plans and everything we do to try to get ahead or get away are part of a larger plan. Look at … Continue reading Lost

Hmmm… How often … Continue reading The Bird
