Deepest Cuts in my Heart

Someone very wise told me today that God won’t set my path ablaze for me to follow. I have been waiting here for answers and they won’t come. He told me, ”You have to make decisions in life and know that God is with you and guiding you along the way. Where would faith come [&hellip

Scared to Breathe

Who would have thought my life would pretty much be summed up in a Dr. Suess book? I bought ”Oh, the Places You’ll Go” for Presley the other day and was taken back by the story. So the story goes like this: Congratulations! Today is your day. You’re off to Great Places! You’re off and [&hellip

I Trust You
