Courage is not the absence of fear
I’m not afraid. Or am I? I do not fear any man or woman, or person of authority, society or my peers. Or do I? As we see trying times and a shift in our cultures, two things are very certain. The first, freedom of speech only exists in the world if you support what…

Blissfully Broken
Today, I am reminded they no longer control me. Maybe I am broken, but I am blissfully broken. The mind is a powerful thing. Will. I had it. I wanted to survive. I did. I endured. I prayed. God answered. I didn’t get to where I am today because this life was handed to me.…

His plan for us
Today I was reminded that God never leaves us in our sorrows. And because our suffering is a part of His plan for us, He uses the broken parts to create something beautiful.
