Skywatch Friday
I think this is a jet vapor or something when a rocket was shot off nearby. Pretty summer sky facing southward in SoCal!
Friday 56
Late one night she'd finally seen enough and lovingly talked to me about my need to always be the best. -- Christa Black
I am enjoying the book and can't wait to post my review. I saw her speak at a worship conference and I must say, her words are raw and truthful. She holds back no punches. She has suffered a lot and is able to be transparent and help others through their hurts and bruises, encouraging others to feel good about themselves and love their body. I have taken a few counseling classes in my day, in hopes to be a blessing to someone in need one day. This is a good read.
