Happy Mother's Day to all the nurturing soldiers out there. And to those who have lost a mother and lost a heart because of it, may the Lord fill your heart with love today. In Jesus name, amen. Stay blessed and keep on going!

This video is a spoken version of the 'Daffodils' poem posted earlier for those who might prefer it. See post below.

There are things we take for granted that should always be a blessing. This poem is in celebration of one of those things, 'Daffodils'. They are a beautiful reminder of the importance of gratitude for the everyday things we take for granted. Things, that bring a ray of sunshine to our lives even in their simplest form. As we welcome the spring season, let's be thankful for the little things. Have a great spring!

Stay blessed and keep on going!!

'The earth is the Lord’s, and all its fullness,
The world and those who dwell therein.'
- Psalm 24:1, NKJV -
