Life is full of experiences that often make us wonder if what we have is enough. Our thoughts begin to race, causing us to ask “Am I enough?” “Do I have what it takes for this situation?” We may even find ourselves saying, “Lord, I can’t see how this can ever be enough.” But what…
MARY’S DREAM I had a dream, Joseph. I don’t understand it, not really, but I think it was about a birthday celebration for our Son. I think that was what it was all about. The people had been preparing for it for about 6 weeks. They had decorated the house and bought new clothes. They’d…

I love the Waze app on my phone. I love it because I am pretty bad with all things geography and that disability usually creeps into directions.
