For When You Need a Respite From Reality
I'm spending a week on the beach in Mexico. It's my once a year trip with my husband and close friends. We take a break from the norm and spend our days catching up on each other's lives.

Faith is a Fight
Faith is a fight. The battle to continue believing is prevalent amongst so many of us. Personally, I think one of the largest weapons the enemy holds against us is doubt.
