Letting It Soak In

“Fearfully and wonderfully made”…I’m still trying to comprehend that.  What does that mean? I am not a scholar or theologian so I can’t give you a definition or an explanation. I just know, that even though I was at the bottom of a mountain when I read this verse, it was a mountain top experience.Continue reading “Letting It Soak In”

Wonderfully Made

How can anyone like me? I’m not worthy…I’m “not enough”.  For years I lived my life with routines and schedules, hoping to stay out of everyone’s way so that I wouldn’t offend anyone. I sheltered myself from getting close to people for fear that they wouldn’t like me, or I would disappoint them if IContinue reading “Wonderfully Made”

Watching the sunrise neverContinue reading “Thankful”
