Grace upon Grace

If you’ve read anything I’ve written, it’s obvious I’m Christian. I’m not the kind that is knocking on peoples doors to “save them”. You do you. Your belief system may be different from mine. That’s ok. I won’t sit here and argue with anyone about who’s right or wrong because it will accomplish nothing. I…

Growth and comfort do not coexist

I had my last day at my job Friday. It was my choice. I resigned and left on great terms. They countered and offered me a promotion. My director advised me I was one of the only people he’s ever done that for. I greatly appreciated being valued but politely declined. There were reasons why…
