I threw away an old candy box today. No one else probably remembers the significance of this box… But I do. It signifies love felt deeply. It signifies hope. It signifies dreams. It signifies loss. It signifies disappointments. It signifies joy, yet it signifies sadness. That is a whole lot for one little paper box … Continue reading Look for God’s Love

Look Toward the Sky
My niece and I were at the track last week, walking. Actually, she was walking with a friend, and I was walking with my headphones.

You believe it exists, you try to … Continue reading Joy – With Closed Eyes In the Presence of My Father
