Resistance Genome

TPOD #7: Your Resistance Genome I read the prompt this morning, and decided I wasn't ready to conquer my resistance genome.  I  set my phone down, rolled over, put the blanket over my head and went back to sleep.  Of course, the prompt was still there three hours later, and being a task oriented person...

Trust in the Failure {Write31Days}

We often say a lot of words, that carry little value because we do not actually put action behind our Words.  Our actions tell if what we say is true.  When I say "You are my God" to the Lord and then put other things before Him or let other things guide my decisions, that... Continue Reading →
