‘Ride on King Jesus, No man can a-hinder thee. Ride on King Jesus, No man can a-hinder thee. In that greatness of morning Fair thee well, fair thee well. In that greatness of morning Fair thee well, fair thee well.’ I just love hearing good worship music and it’s even more powerful when it’s coming from our youth. In 2002, The Proclamation Gospel Choir at Olivet Nazarene University started out with just 8 members. But over the years, the choir grew to almost 80 members who all come together to spread the message of Jesus. This incredible choir has traveled all over the Midwest sharing the gospel and they continue to grow in popularity. Today, this talented ensemble is singing an energetic rendition of ‘Ride On King Jesus’ and it’s absolutely soul-stirring. This was their very first rehearsal of the year and it went off flawlessly. These students are beyond talented and it’s obvious that they all have a gift for performing. I’m just so glad that they are using their God-given talents to give praise to His name. It’s always amazing to see the younger generation lead worship and this viral number is no different. Over 4 million people have watched the Proclamation Gospel Choir sing out to Jesus and that number is continuing to grow. What a blessing to see His message reach so many people all around the world. This is one performance that will have you clapping in your chair. Who else is right there with me?

There’s nothing like a good love story to truly make your heart skip a beat. There’s just something about two people being brought together by God that brings a smile to your face. Michele Newman and Dave Lindgren’s love story was nearly 40 years in the making. These two were high school sweethearts at a high school in Loyal, Wisconsin. Michele was a sophomore and Dave was a senior, but their romance eventually fizzled out. Soon after their breakup, Michele found out that she was pregnant with Dave’s child. Dave had already started a new relationship and Michele did not want to mess anything up for him, so she made the difficult decision to put the baby up for adoption. When Martin Schmidt, Michele and Dave’s son, was expecting a child of his own, Martin’s wife urged him to find out about his biological parents. So Martin decided to reach out to his birth mother with help from the Wisconsin Department of Family and Children. Michele said that, “To hear his voice and to be talking to him really was a dream come true.” After speaking with Martin, Michele decided to contact Dave and let him know she was in contact with their biological son. Once they started talking again, Michele and Dave started to rekindle their romance. Recently, the two decided to get married and Martin even served as the officiant. This is such an incredible family story of love, loss and finding love again. God definitely had a hand in this and I’m sending a big congratulations to this couple.

Television host Kathie Lee Gifford is known for her honest and open nature. As one half of the popular show Kathie Lee and Hoda, she has discussed topics such as her faith, family and struggles after being widowed in 2015. It has been 3 years since the death of her husband, Frank Gifford, and Kathie continues to heal from the loss. And since she is a public figure, some people think it’s okay to make negative comments on her personal life. While Kathie Lee and Hoda were discussing a story about celebrity couple Chrissy Teigen and John Legend, the topic of body-shaming came up. Chrissy is a former model and new mom and many people online have made comments about her weight gain. That’s when Kathie Lee revealed that recently she has been bullied online too. Internet viewers have said how much weight she has lost and that Kathie Lee is too skinny. That’s when she responded by saying, "I've had three doctors' appointments in the last two weeks…(I'm) healthier than I have ever been in my entire life. I'm doing work 10 times what I did when I was in my twenties. And if that's upsetting to people, they have to look at themselves.” She went on to add that she trained for a role in her upcoming film "Love Me to Death" by running, just like her character in the movie. There is nothing wrong with becoming the best version of you and I’m so glad that Kathie Lee stood up to her critics.

Lysa Terkeurst is a NY Times bestselling author and is president of Proverbs 31 Ministries. Focusing on how to encourage women, Lysa speaks at multiple events across North America each year. /////// We all experience the highs and lows of life. Sometimes our plans do not meet up with what actually happens in life. In those moments, we are often hit with disappointment. But how should we handle that feeling? “It’s really important for us to tackle our disappointments, talk about them, and figure out what do we do with them?” Lysa goes on to explain that in the moments of disappointment we can find ourselves the most vulnerable. “The enemy knows when he can isolate us, he can influence us.” Everyone experiences disappointment in life. Taking the time to work through it is key. Understanding that sitting on the other side of disappointment is Hope. When we are at our weakest, that is when God is able to do the greatest move in our lives. According to Lysa these times are often when we experience the greatest “revelation about out who [God] is and who we are to Him” Placing our trust in God and allowing Him to move will help us to shift through that disappointment and into the joy that He desires for us. “Our God is good and our God is good at being God!” There is no question that we are loved by the Father and that He has great plans for our lives. When we experience low times, we should turn to Him and let Him lead our steps and be our strength!

When Voices of Hope Children’s Choir stepped onto the America’s Got Talent stage, there was no doubt it was going to be a moving performance! The choir is made up of children of all ages. Each bringing their own unique sound to the group. Seeing their faces light up as they began to sing made us smile too! As the opening chords began for the hit Broadway song, “Defying Gravity”, the audience began to cheer. The four teenage soloists were backed up with the powerful support of the dynamic children’s choir. Their beautiful sound began to grow as they entered the song’s well-known chorus: “It's time to try, Defying gravity, I think I'll try, Defying gravity, Kiss me goodbye I'm, Defying Gravity, And you won't bring me down... “ Tight harmonies and sharp choreography added to the swell of emotions on their faces as they sang their hearts out. It is such a blessing to see children coming together to use their talents in such a powerful performance. It’s obvious they have spent a lot of time working on their music together and have created a family within their choir. Even the judges were visibly moved by their performance. Simon begged the voters to put the choir through to the next round. Heidi Klum exclaimed “...You put so much joy onto the stage. You’re like my happy place. I think you’ve everyone’s happy place. Thank you for that. Well done.”” Agreed. Well done. Very moving, indeed.

This moving video of a mother hen protecting her babies was taken by Anil Kuma Pentakota in India. Sometimes seeing the instinctual love of a mother animal does our heart good. There is little that a mother will not do for their young to protect them and give them the opportunity to grow stronger. As the video begins, the mother hen spreads her wings as her brood of five featherless babies gather beneath them. The rain is beginning to puddle around them as she stands strong against the damp conditions. “This video was taken at a local fish market when there was heavy rain, we can see mother’s love in the natures way,” told ViralHog. “A hen protecting its chicks in heavy rain.” Even through what appears to be an intense rain storm, this mother hen continues to protect her young without complaining. Setting aside her own comfort, this mama’s only concern was for those baby chicks. The babies knew that Mom would protect them as they quickly huddled together to wait out the storm. Commenters on social media were moved by the video, comparing the natural concern of this mother hen to it’s human counterparts. “A mothers love for her children🙏🏼” wrote one commenter. It’s easy to be wrapped up in life and forget what our own parents have sacrificed for us. This video has us thinking back to childhood. There were so many times our our mothers protected us, offered the last spoonful of food, or simply allowed our desires to come before hers. What a blessing to have a parent who cares so deeply for their children. We hope that you remember to thank your mother, father, or other mentor for the love and protection they may have offered to you!

This sweet girl was bullied and teased in school because of her language barrier, but her passion for singing helped her overcome all the negativity. Amanda’s rendition of Aretha Franklin’s ‘Natural Woman’ really impressed the judges and she even earned the golden buzzer from judge Mel B. Now, Amanda is back for another incredible performance and this time she’s putting her own unique spin on a popular Top 40 song. Just listen as she belts out the lyrics to ‘Happy’ from Pharrell.

Recently, this inspiring dad has been making headlines as a contestant on America’s Got Talent. His very first performance of the Bee Gees' "To Love Somebody" left everyone in awe. In fact, this caring father earned the coveted golden buzzer from judge Simon Cowell. To follow up that incredible first audition, Michael belted out a very special rendition of ‘Us’ from James Bay. The performance was so emotional that it brought multiple judges to tears, including the normally tough Simon. Michael has earned praise during his entire run on America’s Got Talent and his most recent number was no different. Just watch as Michael stands on an empty stage and beautifully sings ‘When I Look At You’ from pop star Miley Cyrus. He dedicated each word to his loving and supportive wife. After the song was over, judge Simon did something I’ve never seen before. He made a plea to fellow celebrity and country music artist Garth Brooks. Simon asked, “Garth, if you’re watching the show, please write Michael a song for the final…I just have this feeling about you two having a connection.” After this incredible performance, Michael did, in fact, advance to the finals. So now, we just have to wait and see if Garth Brooks gets the message and responds. Who is rooting for Michael Ketterer to take the whole competition?

Normally, when we think of thieves breaking into cars, we imagine them busting out the window and breaking the glass. This used to be how the majority of car thefts occurred. But nowadays, thieves are having a much easier time because they simply have to open a car door. So many people are leaving their cars unlocked and vulnerable that these burglars don’t have to make much effort anymore. First, we see security camera footage of an unlocked car in the driveway. The robber opens the door and determines that there is nothing of value for him to take, but he does use the garage door opener inside the vehicle to open the bay. Once he is inside the garage, he finds 2 bikes that are worth his time and rides off with them. When Inside Edition heard about the rise in thefts from unlocked cars, they decided to conduct their own investigation and the results were shocking. One reporter spent the day with the Mount Pleasant Police Department in New York State to determine how big of an issue this was. As they walked around a crowded parking lot, they found door after door unlocked and many had valuables in plain view such as wallets or car keys. But the most shocking find was an unlocked car that was running with a child in the backseat. Anyone could’ve hopped in the car and driven off with the toddler. This video is definitely eye opening and it’s a great reminder to always lock your car. It’s a simple thing that could change your whole life.

God truly put a lot of time and effort into placing all of the beautiful creatures on this Earth. He knew exactly what He was doing with each and every one and they are all a sight to behold. From the most majestic and grand animals, like whales and elephants, all the way down to the bugs and the bees, each creature holds something special. When we truly take the time to look at them, you will discover an elaborate world of God’s creation. These bees are the perfect example. A group of beekeepers in small town in South West Michigan were harvesting honey a couple weeks ago when a worker bee fell into the honey extractor. They knew that they couldn’t let this poor creature die, so they rescued her and placed her at the entrance to the beehive. That is when the most amazing thing started to happen. Her fellow bees worked for over 30 minutes to clean off the honey from all over the body. They all pitched in and every amazing moment was capture on camera. This beekeeper knew ‘that her sisters would help her’ and that’s exactly what happened. I never knew that bees would do something like this but it is so incredible to watch God’s masterpieces in motion. I cannot help but to marvel at the details that He put into every single being on this planet. Have you ever seen anything like this before? What other fascinating sights have you seen in nature?
