Women enjoy those men of confidence. Usually they are the captain of the sports team or president of the class. Fear does not seem to have a place in their lives and that gives the women with them a little boost of residual confidence. God is confident in not only who He is but also…
Writing full time does not mean that I am writing for pay of every word that touches the paper (or computer screen). Building a freelance writing career requires many words that are written for my own benefit or for free exposure. Some writing is like the years spent at school to get a college degree….
Most women are looking for that perfect man to love them and take care of them through out life. The other day the lady that leads our Tuesday bible study shared a list of the character traits of that perfect love. I was blessed to recognize early in life that there was only one that…
