“You are saved by the grace of God. Now, grace means unmerited favor. Grace means something you don’t deserve. You can’t work for it. You can’t pay for it. It’s a gift from God.” #WednesdayWisdom

"A lot of people are afraid to dream big because they don’t want to be disappointed, but I would rather take a chance on being disappointed occasionally than to live a disappointing life!" -Joyce #JoyceQuote

Nashville isn’t the only place that produces great country music stars. North Carolinians like #DonnaFargo, #EmmylouHarris, #RhiannonGiddens, #RissiPalmer, and #KaseyTyndall have all made their mark on the industry and put North Carolina on the country music map!

[Governor Josh Stein @NC_Governor]

North Carolina is leading the way in the transition to a clean transportation future. Wolfspeed's investment in our state will boost electric vehicle manufacturing globally.

We’re praying for Damar and his family this morning in Tampa. Moments like this put into perspective what it means to play this game we love. Thankful for our communities in Cincinnati and Buffalo for the overwhelming level of care and support I know they’ll continue to provide.

After #HurricaneIan passes, be careful going outside. Make sure to avoid downed power lines, avoid standing water, stay clear of trees, do not drive in standing water and keep generators 20 feet outside of your home.

[Ron DeSantis @GovRonDeSantis]

#HurricaneIan is making landfall now. Florida is ready to respond. We have fleets of highwater vehicles, 42,000 linemen, 7,000 National Guardsmen and 179 aircraft prepared to help.

We want a blue-print, but God gives us a story and song instead. We want a program, but God gives us a prayer instead. You can’t enchant without a chant. Incarnation is incantation. Unification requires insonification. Every story needs a soundtrack. #insonification #insonify
