I don’t know if Jesus is an introvert or an extrovert. If anything, He might be both, but it doesn’t matter. I know that He is God and cannot be categorized. He doesn’t fall into any personality spectrum. He is both simple in that He simply loves us, and complicated in that we cannot fathom […]
A Different Relationship
God, show me how to live this new life. I don’t want to go back to my first love for You. I want growth, and I have grown. I’m older, hopefully wiser, definitely different.

Owning Your Faith
Today I went to an Operation Christmas Child kick off event/pep rally, and I saw many people from many churches exhibit their passion for the simple act of packing a shoe box.
