He never stops, propelling us forward with divine interaction, helping us fulfill our purpose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Lord created the Earth for us, gave us dominion over it, and now helps us reach our destiny as we follow Him.&nbsp; Shout for joy to the Lord, creator of the world, lover of your soul. Meditate on His mighty works and experience incomparable joy as God moves in your life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">Summer Fun Activity:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Make a music video<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One-minute read.
