Finding Comfort in What Has Been
So, I proudly walked into the living room last night wearing a sweatshirt that is nearly 25 years old. This was hiding in the back of my closet and I thought “I need to see if this still fits” (it does very well in fact). […]

Psalm Photos – 147 – Unseen
Psalm 147 Praise the Lord! How good it is to sing praises to our God; for he is gracious, and a song of praise is fitting. The Lord builds up Jerusalem; he gathers the outcasts of Israel. He heals the brokenhearted, and binds up their […]
