Day 16: God Will Build Us Up

I went to see my mom yesterday. My kids got off the bus, had a snack, and we drove up to Baltimore to see my mom. It was quite a drive. It took over 3 hours to get there.

God Can Make The Impossible, Possible

Last night, I watched the movie, "Breakthrough". Wow, it was an amazing testimony to the power of faith, prayer and God's almighty power.

I… Continue reading God Can Make The Impossible, Possible

Let Praise Renew Your Spirit

Yesterday and today, I have felt exhausted. Drained. I felt like I have not had the strength to move. What is wrong with me? I have been tired.

I tried to be a good hostess, and it is not hard when everyone smiles and says thank you.… Continue reading Serve God With All Your Heart, Mind, and Strength
