Thank God for His miraculous healing power and for providing a way and a hope for the dead to breathe again. ThisContinue reading "Sexual and Emotional Abuse Scar the Brain In Specific Ways"
Christian lifestyle is not a destination…
"I know, I know - sometimes you don't want to overcome the temptation. You just want to do what you want to do. Times are hard. You need to take your joy where you can. I know.

CHARLES RAMSEY: “I’m the definition of a man, bro!”

The human body and spirit can endure a great deal of abuse, but knowing who you are - the power in how you identify andContinue reading "CHARLES RAMSEY: “I’m the definition of a man, bro!”"
Interesting RED graphics minus commentary
FOOD FOLKS FUN & GAMES POP CULTURE BIBLE 1+1=2 for MORE THE BEST VISUALS So much for my "no commentary": Even though this is a plug for, it shows that the two different parts work together in order to function properly or serve the purpose of their creation.
Video Greeting: Happy Spring
Okay, yes, this greeting is a wee bit late calendar-wise (perhaps right on time weather-wise). I made it a couple of weeks ago and couldn't manage to upload it to WordPress or Facebook from my phone (even with the help of the Sprint in-store customer sevice. I just noticed that it did, however, manage toContinue reading "Video Greeting: Happy Spring"
