    TT.003: How Do You Normally Start Your Day?

    I don’t know about you, but my least favorite time of the day used to be waking up in the morning. It is such a rude reality that we cannot spend our entire day in bed where we are safe, warm, and comfortable. Inevitably the time for rest always ends and we are forced into a new day of work and responsibilities. I said that I used to hate this time of day the most. I still have my mornings where I wish I could stay wrapped in my blanket cocoon for all eternity but for the most part, lately, I have been learning to appreciate my mornings. I am not consistent in this but I am getting better at it, when I wake up in a bad mood, I try to pray first thing and remember these words from Psalms and Lamentations:

    “Listen to my words, Lord, consider my lament. Hear my cry for help, my King and my God, for to you I pray. In the morning, Lord, you hear my voice; in the morning I lay my requests before you and wait expectantly.”

    Psalms 5:1-3

    “Yet this I call to mind and therefore have hope: Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed, for His compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness. I say to myself, ‘The Lord is my portion; therefore I will wait for Him.’”

    Lamentations 3:22-24

    These passages are just a couple from God’s word that help us to know the best way to start our day, which is in prayer! Let God be the first one you speak to each morning and I assure you that your day will go better! He hears us all the time but in the morning, when we speak to Him first thing, He listens and honors our devotion of our day to Him from the start. The end of both of these passages also point out a critical follow up posture to maintain throughout your day that is, expectancy and waiting.

    When we invite God into our day with us, we must then wait expectantly for Him to show up. If you invited a friend to meet up someplace and spend the day shopping or exploring a new area with you, you would expect them to show up and go with you right?! And if you expect that, you would also wait for them at the place you planned to meet. You wouldn’t leave without them or return home instead, you would wait. I think too many of us have been let down too many times by unreliable friends. This inhibits our ability to expect follow through which in turn makes us unwilling to wait but God is our most dependable friend, He will always show up and follow through! Wait on Him and when He arrives, go with Him!

    His mercies are new each morning. You don’t need to carry the pain, frustration, or problems of yesterday into today. He will give you new strength for each day to face its problems. Don’t look back and harp on the past and don’t worry about tomorrow, focus on today and look for God. He will meet you where you invite Him and with Him by your side, you can face all things!

    Blessings FAM!

    How do you start your day? If it is not in prayer, give it a shot! I promise you it will change your life! Where have you needed to invite God to meet you? Maybe you have invited Him to those places. If so when you are in that place do you look for Him? Or do you get caught up in the stress and check out? Don’t be a flaky friend to God who invites Him someplace but then doesn’t show up or wait for Him themselves. He will be there if you ask Him to be. You need to show up too! Expect Him to be there and wait until He shows up!

    WW.003: Every Move I Make | by David Crowder Band

    “Waves of mercy, waves of grace” These are the lyrics that made me choose this song for this weeks Worship Wednesday spotlight. If you grew up in church like I did and 30 is creeping up on you, then you are probably vary familiar with this song! The moves we did were slightly different than this video but for the most part, they are the same. I loved this song and still do but for different reasons. When I was a student I loved it for it’s energy and excited movements. I served in the children’s ministry at my church back then, leading the small children in worship which, with them, always had to be full of creative movements. Most songs we lead them in had to have moves made up for them and I have many fond memories of choreographing those songs with my fellow KidZone Singers! (You know who you are! I miss you all and those sweet times we had together!)

    My love for this song has taken on new meaning in my current season. As I was thinking this morning of what I wanted to write about for this post, I couldn’t stop coming back to one of my favorite analogies for when things in life look overwhelming. I liken it to standing on a beach and staring out at the water during a major storm which creates this giant wave! Think of the tallest wave you can and then double or triple it’s height! When we see things going on in life that are outside of our control, it can be easy to react in fear. Those things that seem so big and inevitable are like that giant wave. It is one hundred stories tall and coming straight for us. We feel like we may drown or be washed out and lost to the sea.

    But “For God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control” {2 Timothy 1:7} We can only control ourselves and we can choose to stand our ground against those waves by His power! In the end, just like that giant wave is pulled down to earth in submission to the moon’s tide, The waves in our lives will be crushed beneath our feet in submission to the unmatched power of God! Just as the wave, after crashing down, still comes towards us to softly ripple over our toes and around our ankles, the waves we face in this life will still come for us but to produce in us refreshing ripple effects of growth by God’s grace and we will see more clearly each time just how well we are surrounded by God’s merciful protection!

    ‘Waves of Mercy, Waves of Grace” Lord help us all to remember that the giant waves we face in this life all work for Your glory! You bring lessons and reminders of your grace and mercy in each one if we will only stand firm in Your power and look for the blessings. We trust that you will protect us and force these waves to bow at your power and break in your time!

    Blessings FAM!

    What are some waves you are facing or have faced in the past? How has God blessed you through them or how are you praying for His blessings out of the ones you are currently facing? If you are not praying to Him about them, why not? He cares about us through every situation. Go to Him with your fears even if they seem silly. Sometimes when we are less mature in our faith, even the small waves in life can scare us. There is no shame in that, just remember that no matter what we bring before Him, He will help us through. Worry about nothing, pray about everything and He will bring you peace!

    MM.003: One Bite At A Time

    A popular dad joke you may have heard before is, How do you eat an elephant?….One bite at a time! This seems like such a simple concept yet it is so hard for us to apply to real world situations in our lives. Why is that? Okay so lets imagine eating an elephant was actually a thing you had to do. Obviously you wouldn’t look at it and tell yourself, “Well I can’t fit it all in my mouth at once so I may as well not try!” So why is it that we look at the dreams God has put in our hearts, see how big they are, and say to ourselves that they are too big to achieve all at once so let’s not even try!?

    Every God size dream is going to appear to be too huge to accomplish! That is one way of knowing it is from Him! This dream I have had for Flow Angel Media is enormous and for the longest time I had no idea where to start or how to explain it to people. (I still have trouble explaining it, that won’t change any time soon! haha) In college I discovered an enjoyment for most any form of digital artistic expression from Photoshop to 3D printing to coding and web design. I felt overwhelmed by all the directions I was being inspired to walk in career wise and in the end I settled for complacency in IT.

    If you know me, you may know that this wasn’t my dream. If you have kept up with me recently though, you may be starting to see, along with me, how I have began to realize just how much God has taught me through my journey thus far. Nothing is wasted! Even though it hasn’t yet looked the way I planned for it to at first, God knew that I needed to take this slower route through some tough things in order to learn things I didn’t know I would need to know! Even though I spent years not knowing where to bite the elephant of my calling first, I didn’t stop wondering, learning, and seeking guidance. In the mean time I have grown in so many ways which has prepared me to take this next step which I will reveal to you soon…keep reading.

    Another thing about elephants that I have seen people use as an illustration which I love is the fact that, an average elephant’s gestation period is 18-22 months long. That is at least twice as long as a human’s and at most almost two and a half times as long. The common illustration talks about how when we know something, like the fact that we are pregnant or that God has promised us something unbelievably awesome will happen in and through our lives, people may not believe us because they see no progress. Their unbelief does not discount the truth you know. Some times we are not called to share certain parts of our calling right away because the unbelief of others can rub off on us and cause us to lose faith in it as well.

    I have been challenged in this regard a lot lately in different areas of life. I have been growing in wisdom about when and with whom I should share the glimpses of my callings, big and small, in order to protect them in their vulnerable unformed state. My fundamental flaw is overthinking and then being so sure of myself that I talk up a storm and then either lose all desire to follow through or have things crumble in front of me and make me look like the fool I was for presuming to know how God would work things out.

    In light of all of that, I do not share this lightly. Some close friends and family already know what has been going on because there are some that I crave advice and prayers from and whom I trust to support me and not bash down my excitement. I feel like it is official enough now to share publicly and it may not come as a major surprise but….as of 8/8/2020, Flow Angel Media, Inc is officially registered as a nonprofit! I submitted the paperwork on that day and received the confirmation that processing has been completed just this morning! It’s finally official!! As an added display of God’s perfect timing, I ordered 50 stickers of this elephant design to have and offer as a launch special product. My vendor had an amazing deal on them but they were not supposed to make it till the 24th. However, yesterday I got confirmation that they would be delivered today and they have! I cannot ignore God’s perfect timing in all of this!

    It feels like I have finally birthed this long gestated dream out into the world and now I get to nurture it and watch it grow! I am so excited for this new journey and cannot wait to see what God does through it all!

    Blessings FAM!

    p.s. Keep an eye out for the elephant stickers to hit my shop! I’ll have a special launch deal on them for a bit to celebrate the establishment of FAM, Inc!

    What is a dream you have felt called to by God? What is holding you back from taking steps towards that dream? Do not let the unbelief of others discount your internal conviction to chase after it! God speaks directly to us and others are on their own journeys, they cannot always see the progress God is making inside of you. I pray for your wisdom to know when and to whom you should share your dreams with and for the boldness to work towards them each day regardless of external forces of encouragement or a lack there of. I hope that God brings your people around you, like He has for me, to believe with you in prayer for the realization of your calling.

    ThTh.002: Truth or Lies

    It is all about perception. The devil likes to keep us from doing the will of God by making us feel unqualified or less than good enough to be used by Him. He tells us we are lazy, poor, powerless, lacking in the required skills or knowledge to succeed in the things we feel called to do. The thing is…he is not wrong! God knows our weaknesses and pretty much agrees with what the devil tells us about ourselves. The better news is that God uses us anyway! You see, it is in the darkest places where His light shines the brightest, it is in our weakness where His power is most evident, and it is in our brokenness where He heals us and makes us stronger than before!

    God knows our damage, shortcomings, and deep sin issues but He also sent His Son to redeem us from the consequences of them. Because of Jesus’ sacrifice for us on the cross, and by defeating death in our place, we can come before God and man alike, walking fully in the shameless, forgiven, new nature He afforded us by raising from that grave. God knows what we have done but he chooses not to see it anymore. The old man has gone away and we have been made new. Yes, we will still struggle and yes, other people will love to remember every failure or misdeed we have done. Often they do not let us forget them. By embracing our past in light of our new self, we can effectively reflect the redeeming power of God that much brighter!

    Here is a cool thought. Do you know how mirrors work? Most mirrors today have been painted with a metallic coating to give a brighter representation of what it is reflecting. However, you can create the simplest of mirrors by putting a piece of clear glass against a solid dark black surface. This will allow you to see your surroundings and yourself staring back at you and it works best when light is shown against the front of the glass. We must be vulnerable and transparent like that piece of glass, then turn the light of our new salvation on and let people stand in that light and look through us to the darkest parts of what is behind us, the black surface. Then they will be able to see themselves in our story (mirror) and hopefully begin to realize how they can move past similar mistakes and begin to let God redeem them as well.

    People want to know that they are not a lost cause. That God still cares for them and that they have a purpose. By seeing honest testimonies of redemption, they can begin to wrap their hearts around the fact that God DOES love them no matter what evil they have committed and that, even though they are not enough, HE IS ENOUGH! That is all that matters.

    So the devil may tell the truth after all! If only we could humble ourselves and accept the parts of us he tries to use against us. Instead of letting those things stunt our growth and shame us into an inability to walk towards God’s purpose for us, my hope is that we could focus on shining God’s light to those areas in our life and begin to grow what is dead and buried there. Eventually being able to display the beautiful fruit of God’s redemption for us in those areas as a powerful testimony for others.

    Blessings FAM!

    What truth about yourself has the devil tried to use against you? Pray now and ask God to help you own that part of you and learn how the testimony of your repentance from that thing can be used to encourage others. Your biggest hurt or struggle could be the key to your biggest purpose in this life. Others earlier on in their journey need to hear how God brought you out of those dark places in order to find hope for their own redemption story. Be a mirror and reflect your testimony for the benefit of others.

    TT.002: What is a cause you care deeply about?

    I think it is safe to say that we all wish the world were a better place. There are so many things wrong in our fallen world. Evil has been on the rise since the garden! We are seeing so much of that come to light these days with everything being dug up on systemic racism, sexual crime rings, and political manipulation to “cover up” various unsavory deeds…etc. Like anything else, when left ignored and unattended, issues like these only grow deeper and more ingrained in our way of life as a society. When we think of how deeply rooted these issues are, it can be overwhelming to imagine ever solving them! We must each focus in on the one thing that burdens us most. It is there where I believe we will find our calling. It is there where our passions and talents can hopefully coincide to a point of making the greatest impact we are capable of for the kingdom!

    So what is your thing? And how can you engage to solve it? That first question might be really easy to answer but the second, i’ll bet, is a lot harder! As individuals it can be hard, even when we know our thing, to know how to help. Usually there is an organization out there that is already doing good work towards relief or resolution and the only practical way to help, for those of us with day jobs, is to donate to their cause financially. Time is harder to offer when we all have jobs and families to maintain. On top of that, many of us might also give less than we would like to the causes we care about because maybe we are not sure what organization to trust with our money, or we create excuses for why the money is best used differently to support your own life efforts or lifestyles. (no judgement, I am talking to myself here too!) I am not saying it is bad to care for yourself out of your own pocket full of hard earned money, but I do wonder… if there was a way to have more assurance that your money was going to a virtuous organization while also getting a little something for yourself that fits your lifestyle and showcases what you care about, would you go for it?

    That is the basic premise behind FAM’s Cause Collection series, coming soon! I will have more details on how to be involved with these in the future, as I learn and figure out the specifics myself. God is stirring my soul and organizing my steps towards accomplishing some cool things through this ministry and I am really excited about this one! So stay tuned!

    Blessings FAM!

    Let me know what you care deeply about. How have you been involved in the fight for resolution to that cause? What are some ways you wish you could be involved? Are you an artist with time and talent to dedicate for your cause? If so, let me know! There may be a fun way you can help! Please use my contact form to reach out or leave a comment below.

    WW.002: Promises | Original by Sarah Crawford

    The last song I posted about was Do It Again by Elevation Worship. This week I wanted to share with you an original song I wrote Just a few long months ago before this pandemic took over our lives! I wrote it near Christmas time and during the process, was dealing again with the fact that I can’t always guess what God’s will is…surprise! haha wouldn’t that be nice?!

    This is something I foolishly try to do all the time. I overthink everything and find reasons why God should let certain things work out. Ultimately I can never know what God’s plan is and He likes to remind me by blowing my ideas completely out of the water, sometimes in good ways other times in ways that may be really hard to accept. It was out of a particularly disappointing reappointment that this song was birthed. I wrote it on a walk I went on around my neighborhood to calm my mind and refocus on the fact that whatever God’s plan is, it is always going to be greater than what I can imagine so I can trust Him no matter what!

    No experience is wasted and so all the joy I may have had over that particular dream was still used by Him in it’s obliteration to carve out pieces of me that needed to be chipped away. I am His masterpiece and every “lost” and shattered dream is His chisel on my life, slowly but surely revealing the character He designed me to be, from before the beginning of time. I am learning to trust Him more each day with the things I can only guess about. His promises are good, maybe I misunderstood but I knew He always would because His promises are good!

    Blessings FAM!

    MM.002: Failure is life’s best classroom

    I was home schooled in grade school so my first public school experience was college. When I first started out I remember being terrified that everyone was going to be so much smarter than me. hahaha yeah…that wasn’t true! I realized real quick that we were all just the same; nervous, ignorant, and confused about where our classrooms were on top of worrying whether we chose the right major or not. I would say, after that first day, my fears of being the dumbest person in the room quickly vanished. My first semester was spent doing all the core subjects that just feel like an extension of high school anyway so I like to think of those few months as my high school experience. My mom drove me to class most days as well due to our shared car situation and the fact that I didn’t even get my license till about a month into college.

    At the risk of sounding prideful, to me college wasn’t all that difficult as far as course load was concerned. I got straight A’s my entire college career and graduated Summa Cum Laude. Honestly, I am almost upset that I didn’t fail a course or at least get a lower final mark somewhere along the way. That may sound odd to you but I think I would have learned so much more in my college days about life, had I experienced a bit more failure and disappointments during that season. I am not saying I was perfect and never failed personally at all during that time, but as far as the world was concerned from the outside, I had it all together with a job and perfect scores in all my classes so I was doing alright for myself! It made it easy to hide the lessons my private failures were teaching me and to choose to ignore the implications they should have had on my daily behavior. I had no accountability and therefore no outside pressure to correct myself.

    I did, however, put a lot of internal pressure on myself to maintain good grades and never let people see how overwhelmed I could get. I didn’t want to ever be a burden to anyone. I wanted to be the self-sufficient one everyone could trust and depend on, not the one that always needed help. Looking back, that was my big failure in that season. Had I opened myself up to some true accountability then, maybe I would not have as many stress induced grey hairs as I do now! haha and maybe life would have grown in a slightly different direction by reaching towards a community of genuine accountability earlier on. I say genuine because it is not like I didn’t think I had a community that would care enough to correct me lovingly through life. That is another mistake I made, by choosing comfortable and going with the flow most of my early life, I fooled myself into thinking certain relationships were more meaningful than they obviously were. I was blind to how alone I was and privileged to not have any true discomfort in life to help me realize the void until much later than I would like to admit.

    As a fan of a particular British time travel sci-fi show, I understand the implications of changing the past and therefore would not wish to change my story in any way since without things happening exactly how they did, I would not be exactly who I am today. Failures are the best way to learn. Arguably, they are the only way we learn since even as kids it seems we have to touch the hot stove (or in my case, a car cigarette lighter) before we believe that it’ll actually burn us. Some of us…more than once! In order to change our behavior and work towards better results, we have to sit in the classroom of our failures. We must study and reflect back on the things we have done or the things we have believed that were wrong, accept that we are imperfect and give grace to ourselves to try again. If we ignore our mistakes and hide them from everyone, we have no outer force pressuring us to correct ourselves. However, the internal anguish remains, whether we acknowledge it or not. It is this dissonance of knowing the discipline we need and denying ourselves of it that causes such anxiety and depression to rule our lives.

    The lesson I learned by sitting in this classroom today is this: Find your genuine community and do not hide away your failures from them. Let them see all of you so they can lovingly correct you and hold you accountable to the things you already know you need to change in your life or better yet, the things you are too blind to see in yourself! The bible says in Proverbs 27:17, “As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another.” We cannot sharpen ourselves and in order to sharpen each other, we must be in close community together. Knives have to rub up against each other in order to shave away the rough edges. It will be hard and probably painful at times, but that is what we are called to do in Godly community! In the end we will all benefit by being more effective versions of the people God made us to be.

    Blessings FAM!

    Who do you have in your life to hold you accountable? Who do you hold accountability for? If it is hard to think of answers to these two questions, do you truly have genuine Godly community? If not, find it! Surrounding yourself with genuine community is like fertilizer for your soul! It helps you grow! If you do know that you are surrounded by a good Godly community then thank God for them! There is no sweeter gift than the friendship of those who love you enough to call you out when you need it and graciously tell it like it is!

    ThTh.001: “…As Yourself”

    In Matthew 22:36-39, Jesus answers His disciples when asked what the greatest commandment is to keep. He says “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ Lately I have been noticing how often that last part gets glossed over. So many times this commandment is brought up in church and sermons but it always feels like they say to “Love the Lord your God and love your neighbors asyourself…” This makes it seem like it is a two part commandment but in reality there are three distinct calls to action here and each one is significant in that, without it the other two are impossible to do well!

    The first part “Love God” Is the most necessary since, without loving Him, you have no idea of what true love is in order to even begin to understand how to love anyone else. Without truly understanding how great His love is, that He would send His Son to die for us while we were just scummy little sinners, we fail to gain access to the deepest well of love that exists, which fills us up and overflows from our lives into the lives of people around us. The second part, “Love others” is important too because, if we are not showing love to others then why would anyone want anything to do with the God we love, who taught us to love. If we cannot show love to them it doesn’t reflect well on the true depth of God’s love or make a great case for why we declare our lives as His. I think most people would agree with those first two parts. However, the third part, which I am seeing so many gloss over lately, “…as yourself” seems just as important. it means that, before we can love others well, we must truly love ourselves. If we love others as ourselves but have no true love for ourselves then arguably we have no true love for our brothers and sisters either!

    In today’s culture we #treatyourself #selfcare #selflove #blessed and those tags are usually at the bottom of a post talking about how we bought ourselves something extra nice or took a bath with some fragrant lit candles… well sorry not sorry but those examples of “loving” yourself are as shallow as that bath water! Yes, a bath can be nice and relaxing and yes, sometimes you deserve to buy something that you worked extra hard to earn BUT those are not what it means to truly love yourself. Those are ways to reward yourself. The deep work of learning to love yourself doesn’t normally make it to the Instagram highlight reel.

    learning to love yourself is a result of the hard work inside your own mind that you have to battle with every day. It is waking up and not judging yourself for not feeling like you can work out that day and instead giving grace to yourself to do what you can and be thankful for the ability to do that. Loving yourself is setting boundaries in your life that keep you from things that you know are harmful to your mental health. Not binge watching Netflix and instead getting some good rest. Not scrolling forever mindlessly through social media and instead taking a silent walk outside to appreciate what God has made…etc.

    Taking the time to talk to Him and thank Him for it all is the biggest thing we can do to learn to love better. When we show God our thanks, He reveals more of His design to us and part of that design is how He made us uniquely and loves us unconditionally. Our God-designed uniqueness demolishes any comparison trap we may find ourselves in as a result of too much social media time, which frees us from resentment and instead allows us to rejoice with our friends in the things they are celebrating or experiencing. And the unconditional love we receive from God should free ourselves from our own over perfectionist view of how we think we should behave. This doesn’t mean we don’t have to try to be better, but it does help us find grace for ourselves to get back up when we fall and try again.

    We can only love ourselves well when we truly understand how God loves us and we can only love others well when we get those two things right. So talk to God! Get to know the one that made you and knows exactly how He is making you perfectly into the person you are meant to be. We are all God’s masterpieces in progress and I can’t wait to see His finished work of art!

    TT.001: …How has God been working in you through this crazy season of life?

    I think it’s no secret that He has been ramping me up more and more each day towards doing the things I have felt called to do for a long time. The least of which being to actually utilize this domain which I have owned for about 7 years now! hahaha I don’t know why I have put it off for so long. Life has a way of distracting you and making other things seem so important. I am certain no distraction was a waste of time though! I have grown and learned so much in every situation of life that has lead me to where I am and I continue to grow through the things I am facing each day. The difference is now I have a more focused drive towards creating than ever before. I want to do great things with creative people and in so doing make the world a better place, spread God’s love and advance His kingdom!

    I am learning to balance my life in such a way that I am able to properly care for myself, be present and effective at work, as well as make time to create and hopefully soon begin to organize projects with other creatives under the FAM umbrella! I am so excited and expectant for God to do great things through this ministry. I already see so many ways that He has been working to equip many of my friends to be a part of it all too! I am not perfect and so I experience setbacks often but the trick is to give yourself grace for a while and then start again as soon as you are ready. So who is ready to get started with me?! Seriously, let me know if you have some free time and want to brainstorm something creative to do together. I am always up for a creative collaboration!

    WW.001: Do It Again | by Elevation Worship

    This song is so powerful! I thought it would be hard to decide on which worship song to focus on for my first Wednesday Worship post but I couldn’t ignore the significance this song has had in my life over the last few years. Some of the most emotionally heighten points in recent past for me were met with this song as a strong reminder of just how faithful God is to carry us through hard times and fulfill His promises to us.

    The first time I remember hearing this song was when I had the privilege of attending Passion City Church in New York City. I was in town with the Seminole State College of Florida choir under the amazing choir Director, Dianna Campbell. We had the once in a life time chance to perform at Carnegie Hall! It was an indescribably awesome experience! On top of that main event I was able to explore the city for the first time ever on my own and I squeezed as much site seeing into those five days as possible! I had a Hallmark moment on the top of the Empire State building! The second I stepped out onto the roof it began to snow! It was crazy and amazing! I Facetimed my mom and probably cried a little hahaha. That was Saturday night. The next morning I walked to Passion City Church and was blown away by this song.

    Even though I thoroughly enjoyed my time in NYC, there was an underlying ache for the fact that I was alone in this experience. I love to travel but it’s hard to do so much of it on my own sometimes. At the same time, I do not want to let opportunities for adventure to pass me by. So I continue to travel and experience life but I still look forward to the day I can travel with my man. This song on that Sunday morning reminded me that God is faithful and He will fulfill his promise of a mate for me one day.

    Since that first time, I have heard the song over and over again in different circumstances and it reminds me of more than just that one promise. It also reminds me of how He protects me and has provided so much for me in this life that I do not deserve! I am so blessed by the mountains He has moved in my life and I am so grateful that He continues to move them for me each and every day! Stay tuned, His promises are good…

    Blessings FAM!
