Pimple popping
My friend and I were sitting at the dance studio while our girls were in class. It’s that time of year where there’s a lot of excitement in the air. The girls are in full costume, hair up in a bun and very well made up. We sat in fascination with the costumes and make […]
The rain brings forth good things
The rain is teaching me more and more each day. Before it used to be that I should be staying home because it’s raining. Well, it doesn’t quite work that way, but let me believe what I want. However, having moved to a new home a few months ago, it’s teaching me that if it […]
You are no longer needed
Today’s verse is on 1 Samuel 30, but before we go there, we have to start with 1 Samuel 29. As I started reading, I realized I needed further context.
