You Need Grace and Mercy, too
I write this one as I sit stewing in a pot of disappointment and unmet expectation. I talk a good game and with the help of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, I walk a decent one despite this henh flesh but sometimes…sometimes the “real slim shady” stands up and clowns. The flesh wrestles me […]
