This week our church had a prayer drive around Nashville…the city we call home. Nashville is still on pretty tight lock-down regarding get togethers. We all met in the church parking lot, followed along with the map provided and listened to pre-recorded prayers when we came to our next location….
I hear so much about how everyone is glad to have 2020 over and how they’re done with the year. Yes, this year has been long, but I still can’t believe it’s over. I feel like we lived in a murky vacuum of time and as much as I know…
