    If he made us then why wouldn’t he want us to believe in ourselves?

    As a parent, nothing makes me prouder then when my daughter looks inside instead of at me for the solution to something.

        I’m all ears if God decides to come down and tell me what I’m doing is wrong. Until then, I’m gonna keep doing it.
