10/14/24  MondayMatters: Remember

10/14/24 MondayMatters: Remember

This is a little different. Kind of fun. Doris and I had an unexpected, extra day with our two youngest grandsons. I decided to take advantage of that opportunity to have them join me. It’s not the most profound MondayMatters but it may be the cutest. And when you do a video, you can invite your grandkids. 🤓

For today, remember these four things:

1. God loves you. Nothing else matters when we hold on to this.

2. God’s Word is good. “Thy word have I hid in my heart that I might not sin against you.”

3. God has a plan for your life. “I know the plans I have for you…”

4. God has someone or some people that He wants you to ministers to. Remember the things and forget all that has you burdened and depressed. 🤓

Now watch the cutest grandsons ever on the MondayMatters video for this week by clicking the link below.
