Joyful Friends "The Hands of Hope"

We need prayer... Friend, do you have a moment?
Our Father, who art in Heaven,
hallowed be thy Name,
thy kingdom come,
thy will be done,
on Earth as it is in Heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those
who trespass against us.
lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom,
and the power, and the glory,
forever and ever.
Amen.

To one who has faith, no explanation is necessary.
To one without faith, no explanation is possible.

"You can choose to be strong and courageous even when you are feeling very weak. However, the weaker you feel, the more effort it takes to choose to be strong. It all depends on where you look. If you gaze at yourself and your problems, your courage will melt away. The choice to be bold rests on your confidence that I am with you and for you. Through eyes of faith, see Me on the path before you, beckoning you on, one step at a time." -

Friend, we don't have all the answers. When it comes to trying to figure it all out, we get twisted in our thoughts and sometimes make wrong turns and decisions. Put God first in everything! Every morning ask for His guidance for your day. He has it all planned out, and it's perfect! 😊

From "Jesus Always"
A reminder of His love that forgives us in our darkness. Confess your sins to Him and be made whole again. ✝️

Friend, you deserve it all:
safety, comfort, kindness,
empathy, community.
You are worthy to put your
bare feet and hands on this
this earth and know, it is where
you come from and where
you belong.
You deserve a life that
feels like home. 🩷

Good morning, friend! Today is unique! It has never occurred before and it will never be repeated. The hours in a day God gives to you should never be wasted as they are opportunities with wonderful eternal possibilities. Get up, get dressed and get out there!

Friend, instead of assessing your energy level and wondering what's on the road ahead, concentrate on staying in touch with your Lord. Pray.Wait.Trust. 🙏🌹🩷
Refuse to waste energy worrying and you will have strength to spare.

God knows. He already knows the path you are on. So put your trust in Him and forge ahead! TURN THE PAGE! 😊

Friend, always believe in a better day if what you are living now seems stressful. You are here for a higher purpose than you know and you have a God that will show you.
SMILE ... It looks good on you.
~Isaiah 43:2~
When you pass through the waters, I will be with you.

It’s amazing how much coverage the fires are getting in California and the little coverage that was mentioned in North Carolina and Tennessee. This is sinful, absolutely pathetic!
So many people in western North Carolina have never talked to FEMA... so many are forgotten as they sit IN A TENT in subzero weather.
126,000 Homes Destroyed
104 Confirmed Deaths
$60 Billion in Damages

There is still hope and Churches in the Streets are gearing up again to help the forgotten folks of NC.
Please send your donations, big or small to COTS to help them help others. They are a blessing to so many ... they take our HOPE to others!

Thank you all for caring!

Friend, when we run out of gas, God's still got a full tank. When we can't do it, He can. Depend on Him ... if you've got the faith, He's got the gas. 💜

Friend, I wish for you a JOYFUL day, knowing that it is only by God's grace you will receive it.
JOY does not arrive with a fanfare on a red carpet strewn with the flowers of a perfect life.
JOY sneaks in as you pour a cup of coffee watching the sun shine thru your favorite tree at just the right angle.
You usher JOY away at times
because you are not ready for her.
Your house is not ready for such a distinguished guest but JOY, you see cares nothing for your messy home, or your bank balance or your waistline.
JOY is supposed to slither through the cracks of your imperfect life.... that’s how JOY works!
You cannot truly invite her, you can only be ready when she appears.
Hug her with meaning because in this very moment,
JOY CHOSE YOU. 🌹
