So this morning, one of my friends was leading worship at this Baptist church in Quincy, a small town just outside of Tallahassee.

I'm in dire need of patience, as my lack of sleep and current emotional "quirks" has me being a bit short with people. I don't know whether to smile or bawl half the time. I miss y'all HARD ( Read more... )
