Lighthouse, Light, Anchor for the Soul
As my sister and I entered Maine last week, we were happy and thrilled to be able to visit the Nubble Light in York! It wasn’t just the lighthouse, which is one of our favorites, but the waves! We expected flat surf, since there was no wind. The ocean was flat as we approached the area. But we were blessed with beautiful waves and the reminder of our God’s awesome power. We are thankful for
All nations, praise the Lord!
I just listened to an incredibly challenging message on Psalm 117, the shortest chapter in the Bible. . (You can google A GLOBAL PERSPECTIVE OF COVID-19 by David Platt.) O praise the Lord, all ye nations:praise him, all ye people.For his merciful kindness is great toward us:and the truth of the Lord endureth for ever.Praise ye the Lord.

One of the verses says: There’ll be no sorrow there; No more burdens to bear!
Changes and His Kind of Peace!
I’m one of those people that gets motion sick if I ride in the back seat of a car on a curvy road. I’m thinking I’d get pretty seasick if out on a boat in a storm—not to speak of super scared! Jesus could actually nap in a boat in a raging storm! He slept the peaceful sleep of One who knew Who is in control. And this is beautiful—He offers the same peace to us:
Togo Hospitals in Need!
Have I ever mentioned how thankful I am for our ABWE hospital in Togo? This 50 bed surgical hospital helps thousands of people each year! The reason for medical ministries is to help people feel better so they can be open to hear the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Because of medical ministry in Togo, so many people have come to Jesus, and a number of local churches have been started. I want to ask you
