On my visit to Lake Behavioral Hospital, one of the patients made this beautiful chalk art.

It is such a great reminder that sometimes growth isn’t comfortable, and challenges can feel overwhelming. But each step forward, no matter how small, helps shape us into stronger, wiser versions of ourselves.

God loves you,

Today is a special milestone! One year ago, I was commissioned into the LCC K-9 Comfort Dogs ministry at Lord of Glory!

This past year has been an incredible blessing of sharing the love of Jesus with those who are hurting, struggling, or in need of comfort. I am so grateful for my team, whose dedication and support make this work possible, and for God's guidance and faithfulness every step of the way.

I look forward to continuing to serve and share hope and love with those who need it most.

God loves you,
Gethsemane 💛

Sunday is a great day to read the Bible! I think I’ll start with the Book of Ezra!

“And they sang responsively, praising and giving thanks to the Lord, “For he is good, for his steadfast love endures forever toward Israel.” And all the people shouted with a great shout when they praised the Lord, because the foundation of the house of the Lord was laid.”
-Ezra‬ ‭3‬:‭11‬‬
