2:218 – You Matter! You Energy! #faithbites #faithjourney energy You Matter! Let me say that again: YOU MATTER. No matter who you are, what you have done, where you are from, YOU MATTER. Many of the challenges we are facing as a society, come from not talking to each other and not valuing each other. From shootings to political shouting […]
2:208 – Just A Bunch of Opinions #faithbites #faithjourney opinions #DisneyDreaming For Part of Today, my eldest and I went to Animal Kingdom.

356 – Memorization or Internalization #faithbites #faithjourney internalization One of the weekly assignments my eldest has is to memorize scripture. She studies it, recites it, and gets a sticker for it. I’ve asked her if she remembers it a week or two later and she doesn’t. She may have the concept on some but not the word.
