I have a hot temper. People I know in real life don’t believe me because I hardly show it. That would be thanks to my INFP-ness. INFPs don’t like confrontations, so even though my temper flares up quickly more often than I like, I reign it in. The Bible tells us to, “Do all that […]
Freedom You Already Have
The one thing I keep going back to when I think of freedom is the softly spoken words from God to walk into the freedom I already have. I don’t know if you’re like me, but I struggle with feelings of guilt and failure. They stop me from giving myself grace and moving forward. Why […]
