Right now I could have questions
Happenings I wish I could know why
Like some difficult temptations
I hope He would explain by and by.
When in glory I see His face

I’ve not done a post in a while on the Everyday Christian Blog because I’ve been moving a lot recently. I have always had a wishful love for travelling, I just want to see places, and learn about different environments and different people; the only reason why I’ve never made any plans to see all [...]
