Out of the Mouths of Babes!

One day in church, someone was reading the bible and my child turns to me and whispered, “Hey, I have heard this before.”  With her look of confidence and hope, I was blessed to see a glimpse of who God is creating her to be.

Prayers Miles Away

My sister’s organs were starting to shut down due to toxemia and preeclampsia only 24 weeks into her pregnancy.
