Grace For The Day by Beth Biggers I sat in my bathroom, doors locked, ugly angry tears pouring out alongside my ugly angry heart. It’s the only place in my house where the doors lock. It’s my sanctuary. I come here to eat oreos and to pray. And I guess sometimes I shower and brush…

Its summer and it seems like everyone is going on a trip. But our family is not and I don’t need to leave town to have fun. It just takes a little research, creativity, and planning to find great things to do. We can always find enjoyable things to do regardless of how much money…
At one time or another we wish we had something that we don’t have. We might even obsess about it and in our moment of feeling sorry for ourselves, jealousy creeps in. There is no way of escaping it. We make up in our head visions, what if I had blue eyes like hers, or…
