There’s few things worst in this world then being stood up by someone you care about. Then being rejected or ignored by someone you love. Then esteeming someone as a very important person in your life when you are the least important in theirs. And it always leaves you feeling one thing: sad. Sad that […] Read more…
Ugly. Not talented. Alone. Useless. Fat. Hopeless. Unwanted. Dumb. Not good enough. These are just a few of many labels that people are given.

We sing about how we’ll follow Jesus to the ends of the earth… But we have a hard time following Him across the street to our own neighbors… We sing that we surrender all… But we have a hard time surrendering ten minutes of our precious sleep time in the morning to spend with Him… […] Read more…
I used to think that just because I was Christian life would automatically be “easy.”After all God Almighty, Creator of the universe was on MY side… everything I went through would be a piece of cake, right?
