My Life

As I sit here and go through old pictures of me as a child up until today, I look back at my life and see all the amazing times that I had. All the blessings and the experiences that God has allowed me to be involved in has brought great awe to me through it…

My last $30

Being out here as a missionary, I have had to learn how to be content with nothing but at the same time have watched God do some amazing things. This morning I woke up with an agenda to get some pretty important things done. One was to go and get a warrant of fitness for…
