“Is this the real life?
Is this just fantasy?
Caught in a landslide
No escape from reality
Open your eyes
Look up to the skies and see
I'm just a poor boy, I need no sympathy
Because I'm easy come, easy go
A little high, little low
Anyway the wind blows, doesn't really matter to me”

In this moving performance, The Voice Australia contestant Johnny Manuel stuns the crowd with his cover of ‘A Change Is Gonna Come’ by Sam Cooke. “There been times that I thought I wouldn't last for long Now I think I'm able to carry on It's been a long, a long time coming But I know a change's gonna come, oh, yes, it will” “All I know is that I will never stop fighting for this, because I know inside of myself that I was put here to do this,” says Johnny right before going on stage for his performance. “I just want to make it to the top 4.” His performance is incredible, and it leaves him and a lot of the judges in tears. And Kelly Rowland, one of the judges on the show, has some heartfelt words to share with Johnny after he finishes the song. “It is time for a change. Everywhere. And it starts with everybody. And it starts with being bold. And it starts with just calling things out the way you see them, even when it’s uncomfortable,” Kelly says, “And I feel like you just called so much out with just the passion and the heart and the integrity and the authenticity it is to sing that song. Cause that’s a hard song to sing. But you sang it from the depths of your soul, and I felt like our ancestors could feel it…it was that palpable. It was almost like my soul needed to hear it, and I genuinely appreciate you singing that song the way you did.” What a powerful moment, and what a powerful song. Music has such a way of bringing out people’s feelings and capturing heartfelt emotions. May Johnny keep using his voice to bring to light things that matter and uplifting others with his beautiful talent!
It was a heart stopping moment captured on camera when a 2-year-old is miraculously saved from a 4-story fall.
A crowd formed in Huai’an, China after spotting a toddler dangling from an air-conditioning unit of a residential property. According to reports, the young boy was left home alone and managed to use a stool to climb out of a window and onto the AC unit.
When neighbors saw the boy, they quickly formed a circle in case the 2-year-old fell. And one stranger stepped up with outstretched arms for the terrified toddler.
As the little boy’s grip faded, he tumbled down four stories, flipping over multiple times. Thankfully, the brave stranger was right there to catch the toddler. It was truly a moment that had me on the edge of my seat, but thankfully, there were so many good Samaritans that stepped up in this young boy’s time of need.
I’m sure he was so scared as he dangled from the AC unit, but it was comforting to know that so many people were there to help. This is just like how God is always by our side.
As we walk through life, there may be times when we feel scared or alone. But it is so important to remember that God is there with His arms outstretched, ready to catch us anytime we fall.
We are blessed to have His safety and strength with us each step of the way. I am so thankful for this kind hero and I am so thankful to have a hero in our Lord, Jesus Christ.

Leave Your Comfort Zone. Try new things and widen your horizons. Try something you've always wanted to but never got around to, something that scares you, something that is very different from what you normally do. Maybe you don't know what you want to do because you haven't tried what you're meant to do yet.
Actress Melissa Gilbert, who played Laura Ingalls on ‘Little House on the Prairie,’ reminisces on her time on the show and the beloved memories that she has from that chapter of her life.
Nowadays, Melissa is a 56-year-old mother and grandmother who calls a farm in Upstate New York home. “It’s very rustic…there’s dirt everywhere constantly,” she says. “This is our little house in the Catskills, I guess you can call it.”
The setting fits Melissa well since audiences first were introduced to her as Laura Ingalls on ‘Little House on the Prairie’ when it debuted on TV in 1974.
“It was like a really great summer camp. But I also got to play the ultimate game of dress up and be in those fantastic clothes and the button up boots,” Melissa shares. “I don’t ever remember it not being fun.”
Melissa also remembered all the hard work that it took to remember all the lines that she had for each episode. “I had a lot of words. But more than just a lot of words, I did a lot of running. I don’t think I ever walked anywhere on that show,” she explains. “Even as a young adult, I never walked. I ran everywhere!”
Even though the show debuted decades ago, ‘Little House on the Prairie’ has never gone off the air. And the reruns have recently been spiking in popularity. Melissa speaks into why that might be the case.
“With everything that’s going on in the world right now, I think, from what I’m hearing from people, is that ‘Little House on the Prairie’ is a reminder of when things were simpler for us, in our lives, those 45 years ago,” she says. “‘Little House on the Prairie’ then provided people with a reminder of what we went through when we started this country and how difficult that was. And I think we’re at that place again. If we could have done what we did in the 1800s, in the 1970s, we can do this. The keys are going to be compassion, community, faith, whatever that faith looks like, and love. That’s it! That’s all that matters.”
Looking back on that season of life, Melissa says that she is the woman that she is today because of her time as Laura Ingalls. “I absorbed so much without even realizing what I was learning was really important life lessons about family, community, tolerance,” she shares. “Because I was saying all of these things and having to understand all of these things, they became a part of what I learned as well.”
