But a shortfall of not knowing what to do can spell more trouble, anxiety, and fear in the midst of uncertainty and a wanting leadership. And this true in ...read more

    If you get into the spiritual lows, among the things you should not do is get angry and play the blaming game. Another thing you should not do is get comfortable with it.

I hardly ever read my Bible or anything else that might stimulate my spirituality. I always seem to be unhappy with the ...read more
