Have you ever considered yourself a ‘burden’? How does that make you feel? Uncomfortable? Do you understand why? Shift emphasis… How do you feel when someone needs your help? For example: what is your reaction when asked to pray for someone or what if the need is financial? Back to you, when you became aware […]
Not particular excited about the title, but I’m back… it’s been an interesting 2 month journey. I’ll share some of my experiences and learnings in future posts, but how… What’s next! Not a question… a statement. (Somehow I think that 2023, the start of a new year and the end of my hiatus, begins on
When it comes to our mistakes, errors in judgment, sins…it’s how we respond that define us… in so many ways. ‘Doing the right thing’ is not always easy… it’s not necessarily ‘automatic’… but I think we always instinctually (or intuitively) know.
