I would have to disagree with this sentiment. Motorcycle clubs are actually less violent nowadays then they were in my generation. Past decades you had some very serious stuff that went down, you just didn’t hear about it because it would take more than a click to get your news. When you did get the news it was only locally, not nationally. 00:00 GANGSTERS THE NEW MOTORCYCLE CLUB MEMBERS 00:47 The style has changed 02:12 I only said sometimes 04:21 I don’t think so 06:21 You didn’t have the internet to see it.

A man spots a dog in Dollar General and realizes the truth – the poor pup is all alone. But all of that was about to change for the stray dog! In a paw-some twist of fate, Ray’s routine trip to the Dollar General turned into an unexpected "tail" of friendship and fortune. Amidst the bargain bins and checkout lines, he spotted a furry face that would change his life forever. RELATED: Stray Dog Sneaks in Dollar General for Giant Stuffed Unicorn, Now Both Have a Forever Home Dolly, the dog in Dollar General, was a stray pup with a wag as wide as her grin. And this meeting was not by chance! Stray Dog In Dollar General Gets Help As Ray strolled the aisles, Dolly pranced with pure joy, her tail wagging like a metronome set to the rhythm of happiness even though she was all alone in this big world. It was clear this pup was a lone ranger, in need of some company. Seeing the dog trotting around in Dollar General, Ray knew instantly he had to lend her a helping paw. Without a second thought, Ray scooped up Dolly and popped her into his shopping cart. He was determined to give her a taste of the good life – and maybe a sniff of some tasty treats along the way. RELATED: Pitiful Dog With Stuffed Animal Captures Hearts All Over And Now Has A New Home Ray placed a call to Animal Control and learned Dolly couldn’t be adopted right away. She would first have to stay at a shelter for processing. But he was thrilled to be able to take her home for the night until she could be processed for adoption. He knew Dolly was the one as he recalled their first night together. He said, "When she crawled up on my shoulder like, ‘That's it. I'm done, I'm tired, I'm home.'" Ray found the idea of Dolly being locked up and alone for a few days heartbreaking. He wanted her to know she did indeed have a fur-ever home with him as soon as possible. Ray visited her every day until he was able to take her home. Finally, A Forever Home Even though their journey together hit a ruff patch, Ray knew the dog in Dollar General was meant to be his. He couldn't wait to give Dolly the best home possible. And they would be awesome paw-tners in shopping and in life. Despite the setback, Ray remained committed to his furry friend, visiting her regularly and promising to bring her home as soon as possible. After those long agonizing days of waiting and wagging tails, the day finally arrived when Ray received the news he had been waiting for – Dolly could come home with him for good. The reunion was nothing short of magical, with Dolly’s tail wagging furiously as she bounded into Ray’s arms.

May 8, 2024 You Are Not AloneEMILY MORROW  Lee en español "Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God." 2 Corinthians 1:3-4 (NIV)  There's nothing better than sitting in the shade of a big oak tree, looking up as dappled sunshine dances in the leaves. As a "crunchy" mom, I'm an advocate for "green time over screen time" - which means getting my boys outside as much as possible to explore together this big, beautiful world that God has given us. My kids love to collect acorns. I marvel at how inside every acorn is the seed of an oak, one of the mightiest trees, ready to come forth. However, the acorn first needs to break down, fall apart, crumble - die to itself so that the first weak, green sprout has space to emerge. Otherwise, this tender sprout will remain trapped inside the hard shell and never see the light. God asks us to die to ourselves (Matthew 10:39; Romans 6:6) and often allows us to go through struggles so that we can grow closer to Him. About 10 years ago, I went through the worst bout of anxiety I have ever experienced. I let it take control of my life. And while I was going through that, I couldn't see any reason God would allow me to walk through such a trial. Fast-forward 10 years, and my son has just come out of a long period of anxiety that so closely aligned with my own, right down to the need for assurance at 3 a.m. My son's middle name is Oaks. Saying his name reminds me of that acorn. It reminds me of the time I went through all that anxiety and fear, the darkest period of my life, when I was falling apart and couldn't see why any of this was happening. Really, God was preparing me to burst forth like an oak tree - equipped with knowledge and experience to be able to help my child who also struggles with fear and anxiety. God has granted me an opportunity to share empathy and understanding. "Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God" (2 Corinthians 1:3-4). Maybe you don't struggle with anxiety but with loneliness or grief from losing a loved one. Maybe you're exhausted by motherhood or you're struggling with your faith. Maybe you feel like your life isn't going how you thought it would. Whatever it is, I want to encourage you that time and time again, I have seen God use my hurts and challenges to grow me so I can be a comfort to someone else. Friend, God is shaping you and growing you; this isn't for nothing. You are not alone. Heavenly Father, thank You for the blessings You've given me. According to Your perfect will and timing, please grant me grace to overcome the hardship I'm facing now. Give me the peace to know that You are in control. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
