This Is How We Fight Our Battles
I had the privilege of attending a women’s conference a couple weeks ago and the worship band sang a song, “Surrounded,” and some of the lyrics went like this, “This is how I fight my battles, this is how I fight my battles...It may look like I’m surrounded but I’m surrounded by you.” I’ve been… Continue reading This Is How We Fight Our Battles
Feeling Stuck?
I’ve been feeling a little out of sorts. The last few weeks I've been feeling “stuck” or “blah.” You ever feel that way?
