The world wants everything you can do. The world wants your best effort on a test, you prettiest face, you slimmest waist, your lowest weight, your biggest muscles, your best voice, your highest following.

Hold Me
I’ve been thinking about what it means to receive the kingdom of God like a child. What does that look like?
Let me tell you a story .
Why Are We Called Human Beings?
I’ve said to a few cherished people in the past, “I don’t care what we do, I just want to be with you.” I’m learning God says that to me, too, every single day.
