As I was praying this morning and being quite irritated that the devil is still up to his tricks of saying to the Father, who knows ALL things, the things we do each day that are incriminating against us. Can you hear the glee in the devil’s voice as he reiterates them? Stop for just […]
For ‘Part 2’ I’m going to set out a list of questions/statements and then try and speak to each. I think I would argue that the first step in ‘examine’ is identifying. All of who you are. The good. The not so good. The definite bad. We all have these in our DNA and definitely

(I think I shall blame this on my mood when I penned this.)The following conversation you may never have experienced – I did. You can reverse the parent role, but the dialogue was always the same. Me: Mom can I go to (fill in the blank – movie, local teen hangout, etc.)Mom: Ask your Dad.Me:
