Our home with Him
I so enjoy watching before and after house renovation projects. Mainly the ones where the buyer purchases a house that no one would want. The ones falling apart and that requires the most work. I love how these buyers take a place that was abandoned and left for ruin and make the house a home.…

Happy endings
I love happy endings. The ones where something positive is the result. Being reunited with loved ones, the sick being healed, someone turning the hard into a triumphant story. You know, things like that. Even if your life is pretty good, life isn’t always positive. It is not always easy. Sometimes we go through things;…

Common Good
I think ants are incredible little creatures. I love how they work together for each other’s common good. I think as humans, we need to be better about that. We often can be selfish or competitive. Though God calls us to love and care for one another. It’s a beautiful thought to think of how…

True faith
