[Faith-Talk] Be Encouraged, A Devotion From Biblica

[Linda Mentink]

Nice, Ericka. All that snow! I think I'm glad I don't live there anymore. That's a great list, though. We here in Columbus, Nebraska, could see that much eventually. May God give us what we need for moisture and covering for the plants which He has created. Maybe we won't have dry grass in the spring!

Blessings,

Linda
