For many years, I didn’t dare to dream. Not for long anyway. My dream wasn’t practical. I couldn’t make a living with it right away. It wasn’t responsible.
When I fully understood Christ within me and His gift for all of us who believe in and accept Him fully, I knew my dream came from Him. That was the beginning of this blog and the faith I want to share with others.
