Receiving All God Has For Us With 10th Avenue North's Mike Donehey

When life feels challenging, or our dreams or something we love feels threatened, our anxiety often tempts us to cling all the more tightly to whatever we fear losing. But after courageously stepping back from music for four years, Mike Donehey, lead singer for 10th Avenue North, discovered the difference between clinging, figuratively, to sifting sand and receiving all God has with open hands. Closed fists might allay our worries temporarily, but they also tend to block us from God's best.

This message explores the certainty of God’s promises amidst life's struggles. It emphasizes that true victory may not come in this lifetime, but God’s ultimate plan of vindication is certain. Drawing from Isaiah 40 and John 14, the speaker highlights the enduring hope in God's Word, urging believers to trust in His promise of peace, no matter how long it may take. Through faith, we find strength to overcome challenges, knowing that every knee will bow, and every tongue will confess the glory of the Lord.

Lead Singer of 3 Doors Down Speaks of Christ’s Love During Powerful Concert Moment

Brad Arnold, the lead singer of the rock group 3 Doors Down, spoke of Christ’s love during one of the band’s concerts, making for a powerful moment.

Many people today are broken and lost, feeling alone and unloved. They erroneously believe, for one reason or another, that no one cares or loves them and that their lives mean nothing. They believe there is no hope and see no end to their struggle and pain.

People are in desperate need of Christ’s love, healing and forgiveness. But how can they accept or receive something they have never heard of? That’s why it’s so crucial for Christians to share the message of Christ’s love. That was exactly what the lead singer of 3 Doors Down did during one of the band’s concert stops.

A clip posted on YouTube captures Brad, the singer of songs like “Kryptonite” and “Here Without You,” addressing a crowd of thousands. Brad admits that he typically doesn’t speak much during concerts but that “something was put on my heart.” He informs concertgoers that they matter, and even when they feel alone and broken, Jesus Christ loves them.

Brad says that the world constantly tells people they don’t deserve love. He goes on to add that people are repeatedly told that they are not good enough in this or that way, that they don’t measure up, and that they fail to miss the mark.

“They’re driven down our throats every single day, that we’ll never be good enough, and that nobody really, really loves us,” he said. “But my friends, I just want to take a second to tell you that’s an absolute lie. You are loved. You are loved, and you are enough, and you will win. Not only can you win, but you will win. And you’ll always be enough for one reason, and that’s because Jesus Christ loves you.”

Later in the clip, Brad states that Christ's love for us remains even in our many stumbles, falls and failures.

Before the end of the clip, Brad asks if the crowd would do him a favor and repeat some words after him.

“I am the one that Jesus loves,” Brad says.

What a powerful and moving moment of someone using their platform and influence to share the love of Christ with thousands.

Romans 5:8 “But God has made clear his love to us, in that, when we were still sinners, Christ gave his life for us.”

6-Year-Old Shares His Excitement Over New Heart with Hospital Staff

A 6-year-old roamed around a hospital sharing the exciting news about his new heart with several hospital staff members.

A stay in the hospital, no matter the length of time, is never fun. Regardless of how friendly, caring and courteous the doctors and nurses are, a medical facility is a place no one wants to be in at any time. Of course, that is because being in the hospital means someone is sick and needs medical attention.

For that reason, hospitals are often frightening places. When one is administered to a hospital, many questions and scenarios will inevitably pop up in your head. Now, imagine you're a child who’s in the hospital because you badly need a new heart. That was the exact scenario facing 6-year-old John-Henry Lee.

A clip posted on YouTube catches the young man's excitement and utter joy as he walks around the Cleveland Clinic, informing hospital staff members of the good news.

"Phyllis, "I'm getting a new heart!" John-Henry tells one woman sitting down.

"What! Oh, my goodness, John-Henry!" she responds to the young man's good news.

While walking down the hallway, the 6-year-old meets another staff member and tells her the good news.

"I'm getting a new heart!" he says"

"I know! Yes!" the woman says as she gives John-Henry a high-five.

Right before getting on the elevator, John-Henry lets someone else know about his upcoming transplant surgery.

"I'm getting a new heart!" the sweet child says.

"Yeah, that's wonderful," the man standing outside the elevator responds.

According to the Cleveland Clinic, the young man was born with hypoplastic left heart syndrome, which is "a rare congenital heart condition where one side of the heart doesn't develop correctly," John-Henry has undergone several operations over the years to try and correct the condition.

However, doctors later determined that John-Henry needed a new heart. In May, John-Henry and his family learned of a match.

"When the transplant coordinator said they found his special heart, I immediately broke down," said John-Henry's mother, Sarah Lee.

John Cena’s Unique and Touching Reason for Wearing Two Watches Will Melt Your Heart

Wrestler and actor John Cena has a unique and touching reason for wearing two watches, and it will melt your heart.

Everyone wants to experience success. No one goes through life hoping to fail at everything they try. However, regardless of that desire for success, failure is most certainly a part of life. Everyone will miss the mark, stumble and fall at some point in life. So, we had better get used to it and learn how to pick ourselves up, dust ourselves off, and try again.

However, even those individuals most people would view as monumental successes still have moments of weakness. They still experience anxiety. They still question themselves and their abilities and wonder whether they are good enough.

In a clip posted on social media, John, during an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live, explains how he overcomes these times when he feels insecure about himself and his abilities. It all has to do with a couple of watches.

“This one tells time,” John says while pointing to his wristwatch. “This one tells perspective,” he says as he pulls out a pocket watch.

He goes on to explain that special messages are engraved on the watch.

“I keep it with me,” he says. “It’s got engravings on two sides. The back is something I use to feel comfortable in rooms like this, in front of people. I used to think I was not enough. I did not value self. So, on the back of this watch, it simply says, ‘Comparison is the thief of joy.’ So, I take this, and every time I feel uncomfortable or of low self-worth, I just give it a little reminder, and it reminds me that I am enough and I’m worthy of love.”

He also states how the message on the watch's other side helps keep him grounded, that he would not be where he is if not for those who love and support him in life.

Proverbs 3:26 “For the Lord shall be your confidence, and shall keep your foot from being taken.”
