It’s one of those spiritual gifts that people will argue isn’t a gift. Sure it can fit under the listing of mercy but it holds it’s own credential. Compassion is one of those things that so many people struggle with and very few hold to. But my 9 year old daughter shames many of us [...]
Throughout my last 8 Weeks I have taken a little photo journal to share with you all. It’s kinda neat looking back at my last 2 months and seeing the facial expressions on each. It’s been interesting to say the least. If you would have told me Eight weeks ago that I would [...]
Hello World it’s Heidi again. Larry has obviously taken a writing break. Most likely because it’s been an insanely busy summer (in a good way). I thought I’d give you an update on the Life of the Kozlof’s. God is so faithful and we give him the Glory! He’s been stretching us in [...]
