Sunday Sanity 4/27/25

 Hey Friends,

Happy Sunday! Thank you for spending a moment of your weekend with us. 

I am thankful we have a Christ that has been here and will be right here! Christ is forever!

Today’s nugget of truth is from a dear friend, Bro. Andrew Blevins. This hit home with me during his preaching this week. I had to share it in today's Sunday Sanity. 

“He was before Bethlehem, and He is beyond Calvary.”

Bro. Andrew Blevins- Waynesville, Ohio

See you tomorrow.

God Won’t Autumn Nelon and The Isaacs

 Hey Friends,

Thank you for checking in with me. I appreciate your prayers and concern for my sweet baby cousin, Carson Shoemaker! Click here if you missed the prayer request, yesterday.  

They are trying to get fluids in him. Carson is still very sick! He is in the hospital in Mobile, Alabama. It breaks my heart to see him suffer! I miss my happy buddy!

We are still praying and believing that God will help him recover quickly. We are also praying for his Mom and Dad to feel extra strength from God today!

God Won’t 

Autumn Nelon Streetman and The Isaacs

I first shared this song in December here in this post. God Won’t was released last year on the Nelons’ final project. I love this song and find the message encouraging.

Now, Autumn Nelon Streetman has re-released the song. She was joined by extremely special guests, The Isaacs. Now, I love the song even more! I had to share the updated version with my friends. 

Here is the new version of God Won’t. This song was written by two incredible writers, Jimmy Yeary and Sue C. Smith. I hope you enjoy this song.

Autumn, if you ever see this post, you are still in my prayers! Girl, you are a trooper and I admire you! I pray God gives you daily strength!

Thank you for reading! I will see you tomorrow.

Pray For Baby Carson Shoemaker

 Hey Friends,

Thanks for stopping by to visit with us today. I have a very special prayer request for you!

I am living proof that prayer works! We have family that needs a miracle. My cousin Deidre gave me permission to post a request here.

Deidre and her husband, Ben, have a 10 month-old baby boy named Carson. He has been very sick this week! Since Tuesday night, he has struggled to keep anything down. The last report I had, he kept a little Pedialyte down yesterday.

They spent yesterday going to doctors and hospitals, trying to find answers. Carson was very dehydrated and had some other issues going on. Late last night, they were trying to transfer him to Mobile, Alabama, to a hospital specializing in children.

Please keep our little Carson in your prayers! he is a very special little guy. His auntie O loves him so very much, and my heart breaks when any of my little ones are sick. I could cry when I think about him not feeling well!

Today is Carson’s 10 month birthday. God has brought him a long way in his 10 months of life. The first few days of his life, he was in the NICU. 

Here is one of his pictures from Easter Sunday!

Also pray for Deidre, Ben, Charle 

Chloe and the precious family that are helping Deidre and Ben. We all want to be there! Sadly Alabama and Ohio are not side by side. 😢

Thank you in advance for your prayers! We appreciate you all! See you tomorrow.

God Knows Where You Are

 Hey Friends,

 Thank you for joining me. I hope you are having a great day. I am feeling extra thankful today. I will share more on it later on in the post. 

Mom and I visited the revival last night at West Harrison Pentecostal Tabernacle. Pastor Wade Hicks had invited us to revival. Seeing our dear friends again in West Harrison, Indiana, was wonderful! They are special friends to us!

Bro. John Cordle is preaching the spring revival at West Harrison Wednesday through Sunday. It was good to be in service, Bro. and Sis. Cordle! I pray they have a fabulous revival this week. Wednesday was the only night that we could attend.

Last night God used Bro. Cordle to remind us of an incredible truth. He preached a sermon titled God Knows Right Where You Are At. 

Here is a nugget that encourages us from the message Bro. Cordle reminded us, God knows where you are in your sin, struggles, sickness, sorrows and storms. Today I am extra thankful for the reminder that God knows where we are always! 

Mom and I have made this far in this our journey, because He does know where right where we are! This is a fact that daily brings us comfort! God walks with us on the rough days and the easier one. 

Friend, the same message is true for you. God knows precisely where you are. He does not need a specific app to find out locations. There is no lag time with Him. He is always with us!

Smile and remember God is with you! See you tomorrow.

DRPC Kids Choir I Got Saved

 Hey Friends,

It is so good to see you on this beautiful Wednesday. I have a treat for you. Kids singing about Jesus makes any day great. 

Last night at church, our Kids' Choir sang so well. Their leader is Sis. Emily Roberts.

Emily works hard with them! Their hard work paid off. I was so proud of all of them!

They sang three songs last night. I captured all of this song on video. I hope you enjoy DRPC Kids singing I Got Saved.

Thank you for reading. See you tomorrow.
