It’s very rare that I sit down to write and don’t know what to say… But here I am. It’s one of those days where (because I promised myself and God I would keep sharing) I must write. But what do I write? And how do I write it? I asked Holy Spirit yesterday. He… Continue reading Heaven’s Perspective
