Dear Readers, I just had to post this song on here! It is such an encouragement! Just to remind us that even when things get tough, God is there.

But Judah will be inhabited forever and Jerusalem for all generations. And I will avenge their blood which I have not avenged, for the Lord dwells in Zion." Joel 3: 18-21 I hope that this encourages you as well... Thanks for the stroll... -Lindsay
