By God's Grace...

By God’s Grace, we can Rise Up to Remember the past while reaching out to help His children in need, cherish the present by keeping our hope in Jesus as we enjoy each day He gives, and looking to the future with faith as we ‘keep on keeping on’ - knowing God is in control and He wins in the end. Amen!

When honorable, humble allegiance is given to God and His Word, Jesus is invited to ‘come into our hearts and we live by His (example) ways, and the Holy Spirit dwells within - guiding us each (gift given) night and day...we can cling to the old rugged cross and exchange it one day for a crown with blessed assurance that where God is will be our eternal place to stay.

Tim’s Gift 10th Annual “Rise Up” was a blessing to behold for people far and near. God was glorified as we celebrated His grace and goodness for the tenth year. When plans for Rise Up 2021 were cancelled last November, God had other plans already in place. Being home quarantined the last week of 2020 and first week of 2021, He stirred my heart with a powerful charge…”Are you going to cancel everything for ME’?

In those days of solitude, His plans unfolded for Rise Up- Remember (those in need) for 2021! Giving God all the glory has deeper, more passionate meaning in my life after experiencing Rise Up virtually and seeing what God can do when we give Him the reins, Rise Up, Remember He wants first place in our lives, love Him with All our heart, mind, and soul (everything), and Refuel every day in order to stand strong in faith as we witness troublesome days!

We humbly thank everyone who helped make Rise Up-Remember happen, especially our sponsors. Most importantly, we give God - our Father - all the glory!

By God’s grace, one day I hope to share the rest of the ‘Rise Up 2021’ story.
