Don’t be petty…be positive.

God was wrong.
Last year, I started working on a nonfiction book about the difference between self-confidence and confidence in God.

Protect your peace.
I absolutely love that more people are becoming aware of how important protecting their peace is. We all allow so many external things to change our moods without realizing we are releasing power to things that should have none. My friend's blog on finding your inner peace is perfect for those who just don't know … Continue reading Protect your peace.
