If reading about faith/prayer annoys you, you might want to skip this post…
I was talking with a friend on Friday. “I prayed for you to have peace,” she said, because she knew that I was having a hard time not worrying about Sean’s dental surgery on his birthday tomorrow. Although I know that [...]
