Conversion isn't always dramatic. It's choosing love in small moments, turning gently towards God's grace day by day.

If there's anything that makes life difficult for me, it's probably myself. I realize that I'm still far from living the way I would like to

All too often, I’m in a hurry and want to reach my goal immediately. I must learn to walk patiently, step by step

I am a child running toward the sun. A child reaching out to eternity with the Father. I know of His unconditional love and kindness.
