And God blessed them. And God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it, and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over every living thing that moves on the earth.”
Genesis 1:28

Thought for Today: Wednesday October 19:
May YHVH gives you extra Grace to thrive even if your heart is breaking today. May you enjoy spilling-over-joy even before your breakthrough comes. May you find cause to celebrate and rejoice over all that you come across today. Refuse to let worry have the last say. YHVH is the Redeemer and makes all things new. Do not ever give up hope. May you dare to believe that all your days from today, and as long as you shall live, be more blessed than your yesterday and your past. Walk in faith, pray and praise throughout this day!
