I Still Believe

“What do you mean, ‘If I can’?” Jesus asked. “Anything is possible if a person believes.” – St. Mark 9:23 Earlier today, a YouTube notification led me to the trailer of a movie called “I Still Believe” that spoke to me.

I am THANKFUL

To A Dream Killed Dead

Despite everything, for years my secret self entertained the yearnings of finally communicating and working things out.
