My Personal Testimony – Abortion
I can still remember like it was yesterday…isn’t that how most memories go and what we say when we recall them to mind, sitting around the dinner table at holidays or birthdays or some type of family gathering?

Feeling not enough…
Just because you feel like you aren’t enough sometimes does not mean Jesus can’t use you.
