3:45 AM Wake Up Call

I didn’t set an alarm.

No one made a call or sent a text to make sure I was up…

My husband didn’t jostle my arm with “Honey, wake up.”

Every……single….day….last week, weekend and now this week! Continue reading 3:45 AM Wakeup Call! →

But with age there has come some wisdom. Wisdom on what is important in life, and wisdom to know that I myself am not wise at all, that all I am is because of Jesus Christ.
