| The obituary stated, “No braver soldier ever went into battle when the War Between the States arrived at the Battlefield of Chickamauga under the powerful leadership of Fighting Joe Wheeler.” Wow! What wonderful words about my great, great Grandfather I read while deciphering though my family heirlooms. His continued story shared a chapter in his life as he faced numerous tribulations that rose through final victory. Even though I never met him, his inscription created a vision of glory, honor and respect. |
By the Grace of God

| I believe that Grace and forgiveness are precious gifts from God. I know that when I make a mistake that I can repent and God will freely forgive me. In fact, I believe that God foreknew every sin I would commit before He made me and has already forgiven the mistakes I have and will make in the days to come. I believe this is true by my faith in the power of the death of His Son on the cross. (John 3:16) Does this sound a bit too good to be true? |

| As a stay at home mom I often fall into the frame of mind that there should be more to do. Things like volunteering at the soup kitchen or making baby blankets for the pregnancy center. Recently, while reading my morning devotional it struck me, “Why am I more concerned about serving those that are homeless than those that are in my home?” |

| Why do you serve God or even go to church? What is the motivation behind everything that you do? Would it surprise you to know that Jesus does not care about how many things you have done for Him? All of the prayers, church involvement, and time spent volunteering for ministries mean nothing if they are done for the wrong reasons. |

| Last year, I had the opportunity to go with a single’s church group for dinner. Everyone seemed high spirited as we all went back to my friend’s house for dessert. While at his house, Dick began giving his speech about a wonderful lady he has gotten to know. Then suddenly, as witnesses before friends and God, Dick proposed to Beth. |
