For I know the plan I have for you, declares the Lord . . .

Plans to give you hope and a future. . . You will seek me and find me

When you seek me with all your heart. Jeremiah 29:11, 13

Of this I testify; that I have come through nothing - my God has brought me through it all!  To know and be loved by such a great and mighty God is why I do what I do. To every ear the Lord gives me access to I will say “No matter the number of the times you have fallen, my God will do you one better. He will lift you, fill you and love you! Come live the days He has written for you!”  …Now that’s worth singing about!
