Hey, guys! Welcome to the blog! It’s been a hot minute since I posted here, which wasn’t entirely intentional, but the break was helpful while I finished my freshman year of college. So much has happened since I last wrote, which means I’ve got a lot of fresh stories to tell and life lessons to …
Have you ever started to pray for someone (including yourself), and then realized you weren’t sure what to pray for? I have. It can be hard if they haven’t given you a specific prayer request, or if you don’t know them well enough to know what’s going on in their life. However, when we get …

But when you pray, go into your private room, shut your door, and pray to your Father who is in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you. ~Matthew 6:6, HCSB Sometimes I wonder if I'm letting my "light so shine before men" enough. I wonder if I'm truly making a difference …
