Powerful journey through a child’s horrific living nightmare and into victory through Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior.
Today is a new day. I don’t necessarily feel new. My body has aged. Wrinkles tell their own story of life. Dying my hair and going to the bathroom at 3:00 am are competing for a medal. The gift of aging seems to be lacking.
We do need prayer more now than ever. With so much happening in our world. The other day I saw a statement that said, “you know what is sad? They are all asking for prayer for our schools, but they do not want prayer in schools!!! How true that statement is.

Very true statement! I won’t be shut down from my prayer life- ever. Not by society or my own child.
