A Daily Ritual that Brings Hope
As I read the sermon, I choked up with emotion a few times for I sensed this might be the last time I would be with her.

Even during a difficult time when I begin my prayer with praising God and thanking him, something changes in me.

The Resurrection of Jesus means Presence
What an assurance we've been given. Jesus is always present with us through the Holy Spirit.
Faith to be Strong
There have been many times when I've cried out, "I can't go on! It's too hard!"
Close to our Cry
When we belong to our Savior--Jesus, we're under his care and love and he is with us. Always. For a lifetime.
Brief Moment in Time
We can't stop the clock. We can't control the future. But we can lean on and trust the One who holds the future. He knows us. Knows our days. Most of all, loves us and wants a relationship with us.
Jewels, Heaven, Perfection
