GAP Stands for- God Answers Prayers!
We can look to the future with hope, because we know that God never leaves us or forsakes us.
This is one of my favorite acronyms to pull out in a pinch. It is a simple reminder that my Heavenly Father is always a pray away, He is waiting to hear from me in the times when I need Him the most.
But what about the times when everything is not turned up side down like a roller coaster loop. Do we forget Him and go on our merry way. Or do we invite Him to be with us always. Do we have an awareness that He is there in our lives? Is the line of communication open so we ...
Being Generous
Being Generous is being willing and happy to share what you have with others. Generous people
think about what they can GIVE instead of what they can GET. The Word of God says in 2 Corinthians

As we were crossing the street from Sarris’ Roberta handed me a dark chocolate ...
