I just want to give a shout out to all the people out there that are bringing encouragement and positivity to everyone! Wow, I have heard some amazing stories of people doing kind and generous acts for others.

Hi friends! It's time for our next memory verse and I'm so excited!

That just tickles me because I've been reading in Psalms, which is a book of poetry, and I occasionally write a little poetry myself. For the last couple weeks I've been in Psalms chapters 120-134 which has this subtitle: A SONG OF THE STAIRWAY And I've thought about how these last few weeks I have felt like I've been on a stairway. When I think of being on a stairway, it is ... Read More about A Song of the Stairway
