Saturday

It started with a 30 minute wait at WalMart and an admission of how truly impatient I am at times. It ended with my Heavenly Father inviting me to learn a lesson of a lifetime.

Good and Loved

How to wait on God – Lesson 7 One of my favorite Christian artist, Travis Green, has a new album debuting in October. He has released one of the songs from his new album to YouTube, Good and Loved.

Prosper Where You Are!
