It is because of God's grace, we have received the free yet undeserved gifts of salvation and love from our Heavenly Father. As we walk daily with the Lord, we need to always remember that there is an amazing grace that relieves our fears, strengthens and feeds us spiritually and gives us hope each and every day of our lives. By standing firm in His grace, we can dwell in the house of the Lord forever.

5th Kernel - God Listens to His Children
•
Jesse Johns
The Pilgrims started a tradition that my family and I continue to observe and share. It is the tradition of the 5 kernels of corn. During their first winter, the Pilgrims faced tremendous hardship and disaster. With little food remaining, they rationed what they had, five kernels of corn. After surviving the winter with God’s grace sustaining them, they met new friends, the American Indians, who helped them. The Pilgrims celebrated their new friends and bounty that they had received by using those five kernels to remember the hardships. Each kernel had a meaning for them. The fifth reminded them and reminds us that God listens to our prayers.
