Devotional Reflections By Caroline Russell
Wednesday, July 16, 2025
Lord, I’ve never moved a mountain and I guess I never will.All the faith that I could muster wouldn’t move a small ant hill.Yet I’ll tell you, Lord, I’m grateful for the joy of knowing Thee, and for all the mountain moving down through life You’ve done for me.

Everyone Needs Hope

Dr. Glenn Mollette

There is much you and I can’t do anything about.If you live, you can’t stop aging. The only way to stop aging is to die.We can’t make ourselves younger. The eighteen-year-old may wish to be a few years older for various reasons. Once you turn nineteen you can’t go back to eighteen.
