Be ashamed to die until you have won some victory for humanity.
Phillip Horace Mann

Carry two pieces of paper in your pockets. One that says, “I am but dust and ashes." The other says, "The entire world was created for me.” May you be blessed with humility and purpose, for it is God's desire that you live joyfully in service to your world and your Creator.

1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 Always be joyful. Never stop praying. Be thankful in all circumstances, for this is God’s will

Praise to You, almighty ruler of all. You created me to tell of Your glory. You give me a multitude of ways to serve You, by serving humankind, in my humble
way, with unparalleled devotion, and a heart bursting with love. With deepest gratitude, I thank You.

I LOVE YOU JUST THE WAY YOU ARE

We're sharing an iconic clip from Mr. Roger's neighborhood and an excerpt from an interview with actor Francois Clemmons about love, a simple and powerful human concept.

Francois played Officer Clemmons on Mr. Rogers's Neighborhood for 25 years.

On May 9, 1969, as he walked onto the set, he saw Mr. Rogers sitting with his feet in the pool.

As the tape rolled, Mr. Rogers invited Officer Clemmons to sit down next to him and put his feet in the pool.

As racial tension spread across our country that summer, these two men sat peacefully next to one another.

Then as they got up to leave, Mr. Rogers picked up a towel and slowly dried Officer Clemmon's feet.

What a Godly thing to do! The little things are truly the big things.

FEELING DESPAIR

My husband and I recently moved to the Pensacola area (for my mental health and to be closer to my BFF of 35 years) and did this based on praying about it for over 1.5 years and believing all the signs were there for us to pursue the move.

The plan was for us to temporarily live with my friend and her family, which we are and we are paying rent etc.

We are “shopping” for a church and I just feel like I do not have a connection with a Christian group of people, although my BFF is including us in her church and activities, we do not believe this is the church for us.

I have been more depressed since I have been down here, dealing with lots of fear & anxiety and I am uncertain why. I should be happier than happy, as this has been my dream for the longest time.

The situation with the moving company wiped our savings, as 3 days before the move, our rate more than doubled what had been quoted.

My husband got COVID two weeks ago and had to miss work during this time and so we did not have his income.

I am feeling very vulnerable and I believe the enemy is taking full advantage of this. I am asking for prayer for our finances, my sadness/depression, fear & anxiety, etc. Thank you!
