Do You Ever Take Sunrises For Granted?
This photo was taken a few days ago – Wednesday, January 9. I try not to take sunrises for granted, but know I do, because daytime always happens – even when it is cloudy and we cannot see the sun or a beautiful sky. Do you ever wonder how God did that? How He decided […]
