All Sufficient

Until Jesus is enough, no person, place, or thing will ever be. Slow down to reflect. Lord, am I still anchored in You or have I drifted? Being stilled in that quiet, God reminds us of something simple but pretty deep. His fixed, unchanged truth is rock solid. But all of us on occasion look…

Hope in Death

Take 20 minutes to evaluate one fascinating opportunity with some facts. This is not hype, but reality. Cindy Landis was #1 in the State of Ohio for the…

Worthy of Love

From so much losing, I learned humility; from so much crying I learned compassion. Down on my knees so much, my focus is on Who is keeping me alive. Hitting rock bottom, caused me to seek help from the One whose purpose for me is perfect, in every way.🌸 Mother’s Day 🌸 What a blessed…

Walk this Way

We rescue pets from harm, and Jesus rescued us from all the harm intended by the enemy of our soul. Let us continue to do all that we can — with the unleashed motivation from within, the love of God. The world looks to those that shine for Jesus, for the most excellent Way. We…
