to the prayerless christian who longs to be prayerful: here is how
I feel for you, because I have been you… This post is for you, the barely-praying Christian, from a girl who used to be prayerless, who now can with confidence say her life is more prayerful than ever.

as myself
I can’t decide whether I’m lucky or blessed. I know that luck really is only imagination. Luck is just a lie— everything is providence. But I don’t…… Read more “as myself”
