Sunday Reflection: Pulling Weeds
We have had some much needed rain this week and things are growing, like, well weeds. The weeds are growing amongst the flowers and plants and need to be pulled. This is a chore I don’t particularly care for, but it needs to be done. We plant gardens using seeds and with some attention the …
High Ho, High Ho, It’s Off To Work I Go
I haven't quite figured this out yet, but every time I have a faith related question, the answer seems to pop up unexpectedly.
