this morning our Pastor said something we all need to believe, “God is definitely on the move in ur life, but sometimes u can’t tell. We are always on a need-to-know basis, but we need to just know Him & trust Him.” God’s not always immediate, but never late, we’re just impatient

a friendly reminder that while athletes need to rest, recharge & heal… so do the people who cover them :))
“I feel honored, I felt like a celebrity. It made me feel like I was important as a women’s athlete, & I don’t think a lot of women get to feel that way, so that was huge, & I don’t think it could’ve been a better day,” said

“I think God sometimes uses the completely inexplicable events in our lives to point us toward Him. We get to decide each time whether we will lean in towards what is unfolding and say yes or back away.”

so today the two girls I nanny were mad at their little brother because he was whining so they told him to, “drop that attitude and never find it again.” And if that isn’t one of the greatest lines from a child idk what is
