“You do not need just any man…”

Over the past few weeks (and months. And years.) I've been having similar conversations with God. Well, most of the time it's just been me ranting. Wondering why God has yet to provide. Begging Him to show me what I need to change. Searching for the answers to my issues. A few days ago, as…

I Found Love

'I found love'. Such a simple phrase that has echoed through my earbuds multiple times throughout the past few days. 'And I found love where it wasn't supposed to be Right in front of me, talk some sense to me' -I Found by Amber Run 'Cause I found love in you Doing it right, doing…
