Flesh or Spirit? I get tired. Do you? Of course you do. I'll be honest, I'm a little tired right now. Not tired in body as much as tired in my flesh. You know, my spirit is willing but my flesh is weak. I've always loved that verse. It helps me to differentiate my heart [...]
Image is everything. That's what they say. Do I say that too? Would I ever tell you that this is ta true statement? If you are getting to know me, then you know that I don't like to say what they always say. In fact, I push back on a lot the world says. Even [...]
