Weekly Life-Giving Moment
At Sunday service we sang a song ‘Good Good Father’ and it spoke to me! I have been asking myself who I am! Not a mother, not a daughter, not a grandmother… but who I really am? And in that song God answered me! I am loved by God; I belong to God! Wow, thank you God and thank you Lakewood music for helping answer that question!!
