Finally, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable – if anything is excellent or praiseworthy – think about such things. Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me – put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you. Philippians 4:8-9

Amen! Amen! Amen!

Be thankful in all circumstances not because we have to but because we ought to be & because we know God is there giving us many blessings we have yet to see!

Glory be to God, Our Savior, Our King

Forever & Ever!
