Many people struggle with heart conditions, in fact it's the #1 cause of death in the USA. The American Heart Association (AHA) is celebrating their 100th year.

Today's Content Provided by Jenna Finkenhoefer Sometimes I receive what I refer to as “God nudges”; you know, those times that you keep receiving the same message over and over in various forms, until you FINALLY realize that God is sending you a message?

I’ll start off today with the disclaimer that I’m not a scientist. Spoiler alert 😉 We know from the Bible that God is a Creator; He created everything as told in Genesis. Some of God’s creations I question a bit. I mean, have you SEEN that 2-beaked bird? Google “Rhinoceros hornbill” for this guy. Admittedly I don’t like birds to begin with, so this creature is something straight out of my nightmares. But I digress.

What happens when you throw a stone into a pond? Does it just plop straight down to the bottom of the floor? Not immediately.…

“And why do you worry about clothes? See how the flowers of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these.

Songs and music are my worship language and help bring me closer to God. One of my favorite songs for the Easter Season that has been on my heart lately is “How the Deep the Father’s love for Us” by Stuart Townend.

Recently I learned that sheep’s blood is an antivenom for snake bites. I think this is a beautiful analogy of the power of Jesus’s blood over Satan’s venomous attacks on our life.

All of us will experience pain and brokenness at some point in our lives because we live in a fallen world. Most people have a variety of past wounds. These wounds frequently have a negative impact on our emotions, thoughts, behaviors, and relationships. Bethesda Christian Counseling understands that during these times, more than ever, we need someone who will understand and guide us back to a positive life path that is not only fulfilling in emotional, physical and mental needs but in spiritual needs as well.
