G.I.F.T. ~ Faith Sister ~ September

Jeremiah 29:11 - For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.

Aren't you thankful that God already has plans for us and they are plans that can only be for good, even when we don't understand why things happen in our lives, it was his plan all along and he will give us the strength to go through it.

Have a Blessed Week!

Hugs, Pam
