My girlfriend and I are doing a bible study together using the book by Matt Chandler “To Live is Christ, To Die is Gain” and this weeks chapter had a moment that God used to blow my mind. It talked about the intimacy of God in our lives and how we rarely ever notice it. Think about it. God cares about your needs, wants, desires, thoughts, plans…all of it. Just you. In the midst of…

What is the definition of true friendship to you? Joy here, and these girls are my true friends. We met in college and even though life has separated us all over the country we remain close.

Who do you let speak into your life? Joy here and it’s true, I love people! I may love people a little too much because my inner circle is a bit bigger than it should be. I love to ask advice from lots of people, but last night at Bible Study the topic was choosing careful those that you let speak into your life. God clearly calls us to love everyone.
