Per(severance)
Recently my Facebook memories have been from a season of perseverance 10 years ago, when I was laid off in January 2009 and spent most of that year without a full time job. I often tell people my Facebook posts are mostly for my own memories sake, the goings on of life I want to…

Yesterday we were singing a hymn in church and the lyrics struck me in a new way. A hymn I’ve sung for a long time and know the words to, but as I was thinking on the year wrapping up and a few other things going on, these lyrcis pierced my heart: “How I’ve proved…
