Navigating singlehood to a relationship
here I was, swimming in the depths of the sea. I heard the Lord ask me to go deeper with Him. As I swam deeper still, He asked me to look up and I saw the sun’s rays gently fracture the water directly above. The water currents gave the dancing sunlight, streaming down into the…
