What if the only place you could worship or talk to God was in a church building? What if those doors were locked? What if you could never get inside? The thought alone leads me into an agonizing, horrifying, desperate state. I can’t imagine life without God. I couldn’t live. God is the reason my heart beats, He is my every breath. And the horrible reality is, there are those who will wait until it’s

Let me tell you what God has done! God saved me, restored and renewed me. God through the mercies of Jesus Christ has granted me salvation and an eternal home. I’ve been blessed with a wonderful sweet husband and son. I have a birth family who loves the Lord, and I have a humongous family filled with brothers and sisters in Christ who live around the globe. How grateful I am for time with God when I curl up with His word and speak to His heart as He speaks to mine. How grateful I am for springtime flowers, lazy summer days, the crisp fall colored in browns and golds, and the wintertime that covers and muffles in a blanket of white. How grateful I am for sweet gifts of belly laughing babies, wagging puppy tails, and purring kittens.How grateful I am for a sweet smile from a friend or a stranger. How grateful I am for a hugs and the blessings of a gentle human touch. How grateful I am for sunsets, sunrises, and clear-flowing mountain streams. My heart is full as I count blessings beyond number.Sweet friends, today and every day may our Thanksgiving be offered to the God who offers His love and eternal life to all. Heavenly Father, I can never thank You enough for all You’ve done for me. Thank You, Father. Thank You, I’m eternally grateful and thankful. Thank YOU!

To be honest, probably not—at least not without a bazooka.These vicious predators didn’t just turn and

Would you love God more? Would you truly obey God’s commands? Would you love God with your actions and your words?
Would you be more bold and tell others the good news? Don’t waste a moment. Time is short. Tomorrow is not guaranteed.
Don’t be like those who say…. If only I had known…
