Love and devotion were fully displayed when a couple renewed their vows after 71 beautiful years. The elderly pair, with their sweet ceremony, showed they are still deeply in love, committed and wholly devoted to one another. Watch the short but tear-jerking clip to see the two renew their vows and hear a little about this couple who have been together for over 70 years.

Marriage is not easy, but that is always the case when something is worth the effort. Like in every relationship, there are bumps all along the way in a marriage—disagreements and heated arguments are bound to happen. Anyone who says otherwise is either a liar or has never been married. There is no such thing as a perfect marriage.

However, a marriage between two committed and wholly devoted people who love one another can withstand those intense, heated disagreements. As the Bible says in 1 Corinthians, love is patient, kind, not easily angered and keeps no record of wrong, among other things. Love never fails.

A clip posted on YouTube shows a couple who is an excellent example of how love is described in 1 Corinthians chapter 13. Albert Love and Kathleen Hart have been married for over 70 years and undoubtedly have had their fair share of disagreements and tiffs. But they have weathered those storms, remained together, and recently upped their commitment to one another as they renewed their wedding vows on their 71st anniversary at their nursing home.

While holding hands with her dearly beloved husband, Albert, Kathleen said the couple had a very specific and sweet reason for renewing their wedding vows.

“We’ve been married a long time, and our kids weren’t there for our first wedding, so we decided to do it again for them,” she said.

The clip mentions that the pastor who officiated their renewal ceremony was their son.

1 Corinthians 16:14 “Let all you do be done in love.”

A fearless feline stands its ground and sends bears running. This courageous cat has refused to back down during multiple interactions with the large, wild creatures. Watch the short but shocking clip to see how the animal responds whenever it encounters bears.

Animals are wonderful creatures who are part of God’s creation and should be treated as such. Part of that treatment often includes giving animals a fair amount of space and viewing them from a distance, often behind a strong, metal-reinforced structure. This is usually reserved whenever the animal is massive and likely to inflict a fair amount of pain if they were to get too close.

Everyone with even the smallest amount of intelligence knows there are a handful of animals you stay far away from. For instance, avoiding lions, tigers, alligators, rattlesnakes and bears is always a good rule of thumb. Staying away from these creatures will likely save you from a world of pain and agony.

But what if someone had no fear and regularly tangled with those ferocious creatures? Also, what if that person wasn’t a person at all but a cat?

A clip posted on YouTube tells of a cat who has no fear of bears. The large cat, lovingly called “fat cat,” regularly scares away bears from its Gatlinburg, Tennessee, home. As the video shows, the feline is not afraid of the bears in the slightest. Whenever a bear approaches the back porch window, the cat angrily pounds on the glass, trying to shoo away the unwelcome and uninvited visitor.

But that is not all. The clip also shows the cat on the porch, inches from the bears. Despite the bears’ massive size advantage, the cat has won out every single time.

“She turns into, I don’t know, a tiger, a lion, whatever, and just goes after them,” said Suzanne Whaley, the cat’s owner.

Isaiah 41:10 “Have no fear, for I am with you; do not be looking about in trouble, for I am your God; I will give you strength, yes, I will be your helper; yes, my true right hand will be your support.”

A 13-year-old who loves learning has graduated from college. Not even old enough to drive, this young man already has a college degree. Watch the short but awe-inspiring clip to see and hear about this young man’s incredible educational achievement.

An education is something that will forever and always remain incomplete. Regardless of the number of degrees someone may possess, there will always be more to learn. More facts, figures and information exist than we currently know and understand, making learning a never-ending process.

Learning is an ongoing, lifelong procedure. That’s why you are never too old to learn something new, and as one little guy has demonstrated, you are never too young, either. A clip posted on YouTube tells of a 13-year-old, Beckett Potter, who graduated from a college in Dallas, Texas.

As the video explains, Beckett started high school at just 11 years old, and because of dual-credit classes, he completed an associate’s degree. Graduating from college is always an impressive accomplishment that should be recognized and celebrated. It becomes all the more impressive when the diploma recipient is not even old enough to drive a car.

In an interview, the impressive young man thanked his teachers and professors for helping him succeed in the classroom.

“For as long as I can remember, learning has always been one of the best parts of life,” Beckett said. “And, you know, I just enjoy reading and learning…And because of my amazing teachers, and now professors, as I’m here at Dallas College, I’m really grateful that they’ve been able to further my educational journey,” he said.

The video mentioned that Beckett now has plans to move on to a four-year school and major in engineering.

Whether it be engineering, mathematics or some other field, whatever degree this young man ultimately decides to pursue, he will assuredly succeed and do well.

Proverbs 18:15 “The heart of the man of good sense gets knowledge; the ear of the wise is searching for knowledge.”

The frontman for We Are Messengers shared a powerful message about navigating life’s tough seasons. His uplifting and encouraging words are for anyone going through a challenging situation who feels like it will never end. Watch the short but passionate and compelling clip to hear what he had to say.

Sadly, in life, we will all experience unpleasant and trying situations. If, for some reason, you thought life was nothing but roses and rainbows, and everything would always be perfect, you were severely mistaken. Hardships and trials are unavoidable. They have a way of finding all of us at one time or another.

Some situations can become so painful and go on for so long that we’ll start to wonder if they will ever end. While it may not feel like it at the time, those horrible situations and circumstances will not last forever. God is still in control, on the throne and is working everything out in His time. That was the message Darren Mulligan shared with the crowd in a video posted on YouTube.

In the clip, Darren reminds people that Jesus Christ is still at work even during those challenging situations.

“You got to remember that Jesus is in all of it, working all things together for the good of those who love Him and are called according to His purposes,” he said. “That’s why seasons matter.”

Later in the clip, Darren mentioned how the words we often use to express our current state and season of life are usually wrong, indicating that our present season is permanent. He adds that difficult situations will not last forever, even though, at the time, they feel like they will never cease.

“Do not identify yourself with the season you’re in,” he said. “All these things are temporary. They’re passing away. Remember that God is making all things new and all things well.”

Romans 8:28 “And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are called according to his purpose.”

Is God fair with us? Is it right that we are created to simply worship Him, but many are doomed to failure? #toughquestionsforgod #ludingtonstpaul https://www.youtube.com/@toughquestionsforgodmi

A group of courageous teenagers helped rescue a family from a burning house. The four teenagers were driving by when they spotted the engulfed structure and leaped into action. Watch the short but powerful clip to hear about the quick-thinking, heroic and life-saving actions of the band of youngsters.

Professional athletes and those who appear on television or on the big screen and recite lines written by someone else are not heroes. Nor will you find any heroic individuals occupying the halls of Congress or the Oval Office. Primarily, those people act out of selfish ambition and are motivated by fame and glory. Of course, we all know that true, genuine heroes act selflessly and for the good of others.

A clip posted on YouTube tells of the heroic deeds of a group of high school students. The four high school juniors were on their way home from prom. They happened to be driving by when they spotted the frightening scene: an entire house engulfed in flames. Instead of simply driving by, they stopped and offered their much-needed and life-saving assistance.

One teenager immediately dialed 911 to alert first responders of the emergency, while another approached the residence, started pounding on the door and implored the family to evacuate the structure. The clip mentions that one young man helped to safely guide the family’s children to the other side of the street, away from the fire.

Thankfully, no one was injured, and everyone got out of the house safely. Later, the local fire department confirmed what everyone already knew: that those four teenagers were heroes, and their actions helped save that family.

But there is more to the story, and it shows how God puts the right people in the right place at the right time. The video points out that the father of one of the young men who assisted in the heroic rescue is a police officer and has also been an EMS first responder.

Philippians 2:4 “Not looking everyone to his private good but keeping in mind the things of others.”

God … Maker of all? Ever wonder if He understands what’s going on in the world, or your life? He’s the Creator of all, so I sure hope so! #toughquestionsforgod #ludingtonstpaul https://www.youtube.com/@toughquestionsforgodmi

For folks in the Midwest, spring is when snakes start slithering around, laying eggs, and sunning themselves, but in Florida, massive alligators are caught trying to enter the homes of humans! There are lots of reasons why Florida appeals to people as a vacation and/or retirement destination. The beach, sun, and coastal vibe are hard to ignore. However, a massive, scaly gator at your door is as well!

WSVN-TV, Channel 7 in Florida, reported on three such scary incidents!

The first, shared with the news outlet, happened at the Tampa home of Courtney Beck and her parents. The family got an unexpected wake-up call when they heard their dogs barking and an odd scratching at the front door. Concerned there might be a burglar trying to break in, Courtney instead saw, through the door glass, that there was a different type of frightening would-be intruder. A toothy alligator was trying to get in!

Another incident was captured on video last month when a nearly 8-foot-long alligator tried to invade the home of an Orlando family! The homeowner called a trapper, and, eventually, the reptile made its way through the backyard and back into the water. 

And, yet another alligator tried to invade a home in Fort Myers recently. This time deputies were called and secured the beast before handing it over to a trapper. Thankfully, none of these close encounters resulted in injuries, but they demonstrate why a doorbell camera is more of a necessity than a luxury in Florida! 

Doorbell cameras in the Midwest are about 1000 times more likely to catch kids ding-dong ditching at their doors than giant, scaly paws scaling up them! 

Alas, every part of this beautiful country has something to offer as well as hazards to be aware of. Apparently, it’s just a matter of picking your preference. A change of seasons versus year-round sun, lakes versus oceans, and snakes versus gators. What a wonderful world it is!  
 
“God made the wild animals according to their kinds, the livestock according to their kinds, and all the creatures that move along the ground according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good.” Genesis 1:25

Make disciples, huh? That isn’t my job, is it? Am I called to share my faith with others? #toughquestionsforgod #ludingtonstpaul #dailydevotion

Blake Shelton has shared how Gwen Stefani has helped strengthen his faith. In an interview, the country music star mentioned how his faith has grown recently and the role his wife and fellow musician, Gwen, has played in that.

Hollywood is typically not a place where faith is openly discussed or shared. For the most part, entertainers are usually tight-lipped regarding matters of faith. If they do share their thoughts and opinions on faith and religion, it’s usually to denigrate or put down those who do have faith and believe in God.

However, during a recent interview with singer-songwriter Kelleleigh Bannen, the host of the Kelleliegh Bannen Show, the topic of faith came up during a conversation with Blake Shelton. She asked the former The Voice judge if he has experienced any change in his faith, given his age, his mid-40s.

Blake was quick to respond, saying that it has grown considerably as of late. He was also quick to say that he credits his growth in his faith to one person: his wife, Gwen Stefani.

“Yeah, I would say that, and that comes from Gwen’s influence, you know?” Blake said. “Gwen in, you know, I’ve learned so much from her and she’s really the person that’s helped me kind of, you know, of get in touch with my faith, and gets serious about it, it’s not just something that you say at an awards show.”

Later in the clip, he mentioned how Gwen has pushed him to constantly think about and consider his faith. He said that she always sees the hand of God in everything around her.

“And it’s really special to be around her because it’s, her faith is alive, and it’s incredible to be around her,” he said. “And she’s so happy about it, and she loves to share it to anybody that’ll listen, and it’s inspiring to be around her.”

1 Peter 2:21 “This is God’s purpose for you: because Jesus himself underwent punishment for you, giving you an example, so that you might go in his footsteps.”
