Hey friends!! I just wanted to encourage those who are maybe going through some stuff. I just want to remind you that we learn the sufficiency of Gods grace through the times we need it most.

Hey friends!! So my trash can is at the end of my driveway so I usually throw the bag on my golf cart and shuttle it down there.

FROM A DISGRACE TO ACCEPTED BY HIS GRACE. Friends, as I was reading up on some of the ladies in the Bible, I saw that several of them, Mary Magdalene, woman at the well, woman caught in adultery; were all a DISGRACE in their community. Most people you would ask about them would not have a high opinion of them. But when they met Jesus, they went from disgraced to accepted by His grace. As the Bible goes, let’s look at Mary Magdalene....
