Have you ever waited for something so long that you concluded maybe God just forgot about your prayer? My son was ready to get behind the wheel and hit the open road when he was 15 years old. But that was during 2020 … ‘nuff said, right? By the time the world resumed normal activity, […]

God gave me a vision one day of a banner. Although it was years ago, it was so clear that I can still see it in my mind’s eye today. The banner was flying in the blue sky, and on it were the words, “Transplant is Coming”. My mom’s kidneys were not functioning well, and […]
