Imagine waiting. I don't mean one to two days or even a week or year, but decades. Imagine having the vision of where your going but not knowing how to get there. Or worse, seeing yourself going in the seemingly opposite direction. That is the story of Joseph's life. At seventeen years old he was... Continue Reading →
I remember being told that I was insecure. I was shocked when the words left my pastor's lips. I was sitting there beside my husband in marriage counseling.
