Dare to be Bold
Yesterday, my blog was about the willingness to get out of the boat and walk on water. Well, not really a boat, unless God told us to (like Peter). I meant, stepping out of our intimidation and comfort zones and “I can’t” zones. Today, I’m taking it a step further! When my sweetheart passed on,…
Dare to be Bold
I’m not talking about “stupid” boldness where we take dangerous risks, but being bold for God, ourselves, and others. Yep! That’s me! I own it! Unlike the shy, timid, and insecure child that I was, hiding behind my mama, over time and with the help of my pushy husband, I came out of my cocoon.…
