It is not just the big stuff. It is the small stuff too. The simple phone calls to a loved one, the sweet smiles at a stranger and a simple extra gesture of I love you to your wife, children or a loved one. We are all called to love one another. It is innate…

Friend, I do not have all the answers about my faith. There is so much I have yet to learn. Honestly, we should not ever be done learning about God. Staying in prayer daily, singing His praises and keeping our hearts of gratitude toward Him. I cannot say enough the importance of Reading the Bible…
