I was riding in my car the other day, listening to the samples of my cousin, Sheila’s new prayer album (shameless plug, info below), Things get better after this. It’s a collection of different prayers. As I was listening, the thought popped in my mind, prayer is a lifestyle. It’s not just something we do, we should live our life around it and incorporate it in all parts of our lives. In any relationship, communication is necessary.

Capture the Moment
Pictures are a way of capturing a special moment in our lives, whether it’s a professional picture for a headshot, a fun picture to celebrate a birthday, or pictures that commemorate a moment.

You (Natural) + God (Supernatural) = Miracles
When I was younger, I was so excited to get my driver’s license so I could drive. Now that I am older, I don’t have to drive at all, lol. I remember when I was in high school, my mom and I went out of town to look for a prom dress for me. The drive was only 45 minutes away, so my mom had the great idea for me to get some practice driving on the highway. I don’t remember how far I got before I was “too sleepy” to drive and my mom had to take over. LOL. Fast forward, I went to college 3.5 hours away, then…
