Trust Anyway
There is not much to say that has not been said. People are dying at alarming rates. Jobs are being lost every second. People are stuck in apartments, houses, and other countries.

Let the waves carry you
Today, I was at the beach reading. The theme “Following God’s will” has been on my mind a lot lately. After quite some time the heat of the day came. I usually enjoy going in the waves, but today I was not really feeling it. However, when at the beach, you got to do what…

Don’t Drop the Key
I went on a run today. When I run, I usually have to hold onto my key. My pockets are usually not deep enough, and quite frankly they would definitely fall out. So I clench my key in my sweaty hand. We, humans, hold onto a lot of things tightly in our hands. A lot…

The Anchor Inside Each of Us
There are situations in life, where fleeing seems ideal. It may be at the podium, when giving a talk to a giant crowd. It may be, when flipping over the exam and looking at question 1. It may be, when sitting in a doctors office waiting for the results. Everything in our very core shouts…
