I hope this is followed up by a valor award for the cadet that stabbed the shooter to death, even if an exception to regs needs to be made to do it. In any case, good on the Army for moving quickly on this, those young men deserve every bit of recognition they’re getting.

There is a powerful moment in Scripture that many people overlook, yet it carries one of the deepest revelations of grace. A woman—broken, rejected, and known in her city for sin—walked into a room full of “righteous” people. She wasn’t invited. She wasn’t welcomed. In fact, her presence alone was offensive. But she came anyway… because she had encountered something greater than her shame—she had encountered mercy. When she saw Jesus Christ, she didn’t speak many words. She didn’t try to defend her past. She didn’t try to impress anyone. She fell at His feet. Her tears began to flow—uncontrollable, sincere, deep. Those tears were not ordinary tears… they were the language of a heart that had seen its own brokenness and still found hope. She wept so much that her tears washed His feet. Then she did something even more shocking… She loosened her hair—something no respectable woman would do in public—and used it to wipe His feet. In that moment, she laid down her dignity, her pride, her reputation… everything. Then she poured out the oil. Not just any oil… costly oil. The kind that people save for special moments. The kind that represents value, sacrifice, and honor. While others saw a sinful woman… Jesus saw a surrendered heart. While others judged her past… Jesus responded to her faith. While others whispered in criticism… Jesus spoke forgiveness. “Your sins are forgiven… your faith has saved you; go in peace.” Oh, what a powerful exchange! She came in with shame… She left with peace. She came in as a sinner… She left as someone forgiven. She came in rejected by men… She left accepted by God. This story is not just about her… It is about YOU. There are moments in life where you feel unworthy to come before God. Your mistakes speak louder than your prayers. Your past tries to disqualify you. People label you and remind you of who you used to be. But listen carefully— God is not moved by your perfection. He is moved by your sincerity. You don’t need a perfect record to come to Christ. You need a broken and honest heart. Stop waiting until you “fix yourself” before coming to God. Come with your tears. Come with your pain. Come with your struggles. Lay everything at His feet. Because at the feet of Jesus Christ: Shame loses its power Guilt is washed away Love is restored Peace is given Let your tears speak. Let your heart pour out. Because one genuine moment at His feet can do what years of self-effort could never achieve. Your past is not stronger than His mercy. Your sin is not greater than His grace. Come… just as you are.

Have you ever? Hmm 😒 🤔?¿

I’m still smiling, but please know it has not been easy. Stage IV cancer has tested me in every way, yet I’m still standing. Still breathing. Still hoping.

🚨 JUST IN: Florida Southern College has just created an ROTC SCHOLARSHIP in honor of fallen Captain Cody Khork, who was lost to Operation Epic Fury Well-deserved 🙏🏻 SHERIFF GRADY JUDD: "Normally, the pictures I hold up are of bad guys. This is a hero. This man went off to war at the direction of his country." "This is Captain Cody Khork. He's 35. He's from Winter Haven." "He was in the U.S. Army Reserves. He was called up. He died in the early days as a result of an attack." "His family has asked that we escort him past Florida Southern College, where he went to college." "This man is a hero, and he died in order that we can live in a free and democratic society, and he did what was asked of him of his country." "Once he is escorted to the funeral home, which is in Winter Haven, he will remain there until he has services this weekend, and then on Monday we will escort him to Bushnell, which is his final resting place." "From the time he arrives in Polk County on that airplane until the time we take him to Bushnell, Captain Cody will not be by himself." "Twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week, there will be a deputy standing guard because it's the right thing to do. We're proud of him." "We're proud of all our military personnel that are standing in the gap and doing what this country has asked of them." 🇺🇸

Nlate Schwegman, 25, was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer after struggling with persistent coughing and severe back pain. Doctors gave him just a 3% chance of survival. Instead of giving in to fear, he turned to God; immersing himself in Scripture, prayer, and worship, even through painful, sleepless nights. One night, he says he felt a strange warmth move through his body. By morning, the pain was gone. At his next scan, doctors reportedly found no trace of cancer and even noticed new bone growth where the disease had damaged him. Hallelujah!

Yup! 😆

5 years fighting cancer… 💔 Now it’s spread to my brain. The pain is unbearable, and I’m honestly scared. Starting radiation this week… Please send prayers, strength, or support my way. ❤️
