Phone a Friend

The night before last I got a text from a friend asking if I was free to chat yesterday morning. I haven’t spoken to her in many weeks and I was wondering if there was something wrong when she asked if I could talk. I texted back of course and we made a plan to…

A Little Book and a Prayer

Priceless

Some events over the last few days had me thinking this morning as I sat down to talk with Father. If you’ve followed this little blog very long you know that I start my day with a chat. I usually find myself asking what He wants me to share here, but there are some days…
