The Wait

Posted on September 23, 2025September 26, 2025 by towerofbabl

I'm often infatuated with God’s hand, not His heart. I’ve read the scriptures and parables. I know the miracles He’s performed. But I skim over the time it takes for the miracles to happen.

Creative, Called and Still Figuring It Out 

Posted on August 20, 2025 by towerofbabl
