ABC- About Me
Recently, my husband and I came in from our morning walk and I headed out onto the screened porch to cool down and invest in some quiet time. I told the Lord that in an hour walk we only got through the letter "N" during our ABC prayers for others. The idea came to me to go through the letters of the alphabet and find an area of my life for each letter which could use some fine tuning.
The suggestions just flew into my mind! Obviously, there's room for lots of improvement.
