Serve… Wash Stinky Feet!

As a nurse I provide care and comfort to my patients, a teacher pours knowledge into their students, a store clerk provides their customers with assistance, and a comedian is able to make people laugh. You see, it doesn’t matter what role we play, we are all to serve others!Continue reading

I’ve tried to pray and ask God for peace and guidance, after all I believe He is the one who told me to do it.
