I would love to hear from you! Sharing Saturday with you. A Jewel: The WOKE liberal agenda with its progressive ideaology is part of a continuing grooming and a trap for those of us that came through childhood sexual abuse. LGBTQQIP2SA: any combination of letters attempting to represent all the identities in the queer community,…

I would love to hear from you! Sharing Saturday with you. A Jewel: Suffering and loss have been an intimate companion to me. I try to ignore it but the truth is it remains. My childhood brought destruction daily. When I married, the loss of those 18 years haunts my soul. It’s what was taken…

I would love to hear from you! Sharing Saturday with you. A Jewel: Forgiving what you cannot forget was a Sunday message I heard last week. While the thought of God is for me to release myself from those that hurt me, it is never His thoughts to keep me tethered to them. It is…
