Word Wednesday: What I want to do, I do not do…

Pin it(15) I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do… (21) So I find this law at work: Although I want to do good, evil is right there with me. (22) For in my inner being I delight in God’s [...]

Word(less) Wednesday: To Him Who Sits On the Throne

Praying for Direction

Pin itA little while ago, I posted about my professional goals for 2010. I’m also thinking about personal goals, my family, and what God is calling me to this year.

Pin itI used to be completely against acknowledging anything about Halloween. When I learned the true origins based in Paganism, I was convinced that by joining in any of the traditions, I would be condoning paganism, and opening myself to demonic activity.
