I don’t know the family, but I do know the same God from whom they seek strength. Praise be to the God andContinue reading “Red Balloons for Ryan”

I will give you the needed grace and wisdom for each moment as it comes, and you will rejoice in the victory. For I will overcome timidity, and I Myself will displace inadequacy.Continue reading “Carpe Diem”
