My name is Laura...

Someone in bible study asked me if I knew what my name was. I didn't and she told me that it meant victorious. Victorious - hmmmm.... What will be my victory or have I already experienced it and I was too busy to notice. Will I come from the bottom and rise to the top. All from a name.
