In response to #BOCOGrateful
I am reminded of the Bible verses Ephesians 5:20 and Psalms 107:1.
I am very thankful for Botetourt County where I have been loved, raised, cared, taught, and worked, and even rescued and cared for back to health many times when in great need! Botetourt’s rural-caring roots of the countryside of small communities, towns, farmlands, and mountains of beautiful scenery are all throughout.
Also, her heart of loving, caring, rural communities of quality, neighborly, helpful, caring schools, families, friends, and neighbors’ farms, small businesses, stores, shops, restaurants, fire & rescue, police, local government and services groups, clubs, and organizations—and so many more not listed as it would take up the entire newspaper of beautiful, abundant gifts of giving, caring citizens remind me of the verse Matthew 14:18-21.
If it wasn’t for Botetourt’s rural, caring community, I wouldn’t be here today to give thanks!
A special “thank you” for my local community of Eagle Rock, the volunteer fire & rescue department, and the community of churches and many caring neighbors, friends, and families remind me of verse Matthew 21:14-18! Thank you to Botetourt and God’s blessings! Psalms 75:1.
