For the Lord God is a sun and shield; the Lord bestows favor and honor.No good thing does he withhold from those who walk uprightly.—Psalm 84:11 At first glance, this verse is one of those that we should all make our life verse.

We serve a God of amazing, total power. I was reading the story of when Shadrach, Meschach, and Abednego were thrown into the fiery furnace. In case you didn’t know, spoiler alert: they end up surviving. Nebuchadnezzar freaks out because he sees fourmen instead of the three he sent in there. When he retrieves them, not only …

They literally HATE my family. NOT COOL! She’s just nice to me when she needs something from me. They broke my heart. He …
We all have bad days. Sometimes they’re really bad days. It’s only the fifth week of school and already I’ve had a few meltdowns (you too?? glad to know i’m not alone).
