Is there somewhere you’ve always wanted to travel? Or a dream to own your business? To be married? Or win a championship? Life cannot merely be sleep, eat, work and moments of fun.

Pieces of Grace
What is the grace of God? How do we receive it? What does it feel like? For me, it is forgiveness, guidance and assurance all rolled together.
