I remember it well. I remember digging myself into a hole that I could not get out of, and the more that I tried – the more I would be digging myself deeper. I was tired and miserable. I remember crying out for help, hoping someone would hear my screams; but no one answered. I finally lost all energy to […]
Thursday, May 3rd was the National Day of Prayer. I’m so thankful that our nation has a day for us to commemorate prayer.
