A Place of Hope, Second Chances, and New Beginnings

The Earth is the Lord’s and everything in it. The world and all its people belong to Him.

Psalm 24: 1

“He owns the cattle on a thousand hills, the wealth in every mine…I know that He will care for me,” says the old song. Do you live your life like it belongs to Hi, not you? Do you thank Him for the wealth you enjoy? Start now!
