You, God, are the One who knows my heart. You live there. You see me as I really am. You built that Place, that Holy Space where my dreams abide. You carefully crafted them and nurtured them and fed them. There are so many questions I [...]
Things are tough here, Father. We go through sicknesses and deaths. We see pain in relationships, pain in decisions, pain when we open our eyes at first light. We know it’s coming. Every moment of the day, someone is crying out the “Why?” and the “Why [...]
