June 15 – Love, It’s Not Rocket Science
#166of365 #FaithBites #FaithJourney Love, It’s Not Rocket Science Growing up, I’ve heard over and over when something is hard: “Well, at least it’s not Rocket Science”.

#129of365 #FaithBites #FaithJourney Scars and Memories We all have scars on our bodies. Tiny cuts that didn’t heal. Surgeries to heal us but left us marked.
