Lost and Found
Lost and Found
By E.M. McCarthy
Ally hadn't been there too long when she heard the man's phone ring again. Her white face mask shifted off of her nose. She pulled on the string to tighten it.

By De Maria
On Aug 4, I tested positive for COVID19. I immediately went to see Dr. Immanuel of Sugarland at her Reheboth Clinic. She prescribed Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ), Budesonide on a nebulizer and a Z pac.

"Do whatever He tells you." – Mary to us [Luke 2:5]
By Troy Kroening
These are Mary’s words to the servers at the wedding in Cana. Mary does not put the focus on herself; she never does. Her focus is on us getting closer to Jesus. In a truly motherly way, she wants us to get closer to Jesus. She wants us to cooperate with Jesus, to see His miracles, not because of the miracles, but so that we might believe in her Son, which is what is best for us.
