The Divine Rearranger
You’ve probably heard about designers who go into a home, take all the existing furnishings and décor items, and simply rearrange it all.

We are Living in Momentous Times
At the start of this year, I committed to reading daily from my “One Year Bible” (broken up each day in a chapter from the Old Testament, New Testament, a Psalm and Proverbs chapter in order).
