Once again, it happened to me. And I love when it does. I read a verse that everyone knows, and we kinda blow over it when we read it, because it is so familiar. But this week, BAM! Romans 8:28-29 hit home afresh. The part that stuck out was “God foreknew me.” Defined, foreknow is … Continue reading Once again…
My small group decided to go through Psalm 119, the longest chapter in the Bible. This week we had an introduction session to go over some cool things, which I shall share with you now.

I believe that timing is everything. Four months ago I slipped on some chicken poop while bringing the chickens water and tore the meniscus in my left knee.

I have a client who is a realtor. She told me when she shows a house she has either chocolate chip cookies, or a loaf of bread baking in the oven.
