Serena Williams rose to fame when she was just a teenager on the tennis circuit. She went on to win numerous championships and Wimbletons and has become a household name, in regards to tennis.
Recently, Serena welcomed a baby girl into the world named Alexis Olympia, Jr. and it's brought up some topics from Serena's own childhood. She was always athletic, but once she was thrust into the spotlight, a lot of people started to criticize Serena for her looks and 'manly' figure. For years, she was body-shamed and it really took a toll on her confidence and self-esteem.
Now that she's raising her own daughter, Serena wants to make sure that her girl knows just how beautiful and special she is all the time. Words can definitely hurt, but know who you are inside is super important. These are some powerful thoughts!

Sadly, this young life was tragically killed after one of her concert's in Orlando, Florida. And while Christina may no longer be here on earth, her memory and legacy continues to live on.
Today, her mother, Tina Grimmie, is releasing a song that Christina started writing when she was just 12 years old.

When a woman’s 3-month-old baby wasn't responding while she was driving, she started to panic. That's when this frantic mom flagged down Deputy Jeremie Nix and rushed the baby to his arms.
Every moment is captured on the police dash cam and it's absolutely heart-stopping to watch. After performing several life-saving techniques on the infant, Deputy Nix made the decision to drive straight to the emergency room instead of waiting for paramedics. Once he arrived, a crew of medical professionals met him and was able to get the baby to response.
I know that this mother must've been so relived to know that her baby was going to be okay. Thank goodness that this police officer was in the right place at the right time. God bless our heroes in blue.
Jennie Finch-Daigle is a former Olympic softball champion and current contestant on Dancing With The Stars. But recently, Jennie was met with moral dilemma when she was asked to perform to a risque song.
After going back and forth, Jennie ultimately decided that this song was not representative of what she stood for and asked producers to give her an alternate selection. This amazing woman said that she wanted to glorify God and she couldn't do that dancing to an inappropriate song, especially when young girls look up to her as a role model.
In this day and age, standing up for your faith doesn't happen that often so I'm so proud of Jennie for speaking up for God. She went on to perform a great Cha-Cha routine to “Do It Like This" by Daphne Willis. Who else is clapping for this strong, Christian woman?
42-year-old Lifford Shillingford gave up the spotlight years ago. He was a talented performer with the hit UK band Artful Dodger and even toured with the guys. But now, Lifford is ready to give his dream another shot and he's turning to the Britain's Got Talent stage.
Just listen as he performs the most amazing rendition of 'A Change Is Gonna Come' from Sam Cooke. Lifford put so much heart and soul into this performance and it truly comes through in his voice. It's obvious this man is meant to be on the stage and I'm so glad that he's continuing to follow his dreams.
He easily earned a standing ovation, but what really surprised me is when judge Alesha pressed her golden buzzer sending Lifford straight through to the semi-finals. Lifford gave this audition his all and it truly paid off big time. I can't wait to see him during the live shows!
With God, there is truly hope and truth. When we give our life over to the Lord, there is a better one waiting for us in Heaven. God loves us more than we can ever imagine and He has given us so much by sending His only Son to die for our sins. Because of this, we are now forgiven and will live out our days in Heaven.
That's exactly what the powerful lyrics of 'Living Hope' from Phil Wickham will remind you of. And this studio session is absolutely amazing to hear. He is truly our light in the dark and the compass that will always guide us home. Because of His sacrifice and mercy we are forever His.
These lyrics are so true and I just love singing them out loud to our God. Who else wants to join me?
Irish wedding ceremony had a special twist that no one saw coming. A group of their friends wanted to give Bernie and Cian a ceremony to remember so they came together to plan a big surprise.
They decided to perform a flash mob and the bride and groom had no clue it was going to happen. Just look at their faces when members of the crowd stand up and start to sing Abba's classic song 'The Way Old Friends Do.' It's obvious that they were overcome with joy at this talented performance. And then they followed up with the Liverpool anthem 'You'll Never Walk Alone' especially for Cian.
The groom is a huge Liverpool fan so they wanted to add in this song for him. How amazing and unforgettable was this?
When I first heard this story about an atheist walking through the woods, I wasn't sure what to think. But as time went on, I found myself laughing out loud at this hilarious joke.
There's nothing like a humorous joke to make your entire day. And when you hear the surprise ending of this one, you'll be cracking up. I definitely didn't see this twist coming but afterwards, I had to share this one with all of my friends.
I was thinking of so may scenarios between an atheist and a bear, but I never saw this one coming. Don't let anyone tell you that God doesn't have a sense of humor. Who else got a good chuckle out of this?
Doreen Giuliano was looking our her window when she noticed a strange sight at her neighbor's house. There was a man poking around the garbage pails before he finally opened the side door and walked inside the home. Doreen immediately sent her neighbor, Jen Hunter, a text message telling her what she had seen.
Doreen became increasingly concerned until Jen and her 18-year-old daughter walked outside and met her on the lawn. Jen's husband, Jeremy, was still inside the house. They decided to call 911 and when the police arrived, they ran inside to find Jeremy laying on the floor unconscious. The intruder had murdered him while the women were all outside.
Eventually, the police found the suspect hiding in a closet and arrested him. This terrible situation could've ended in even more bloodshed if this 'nosy neighbor' hadn't texted Jen. We're praying for this family as they go through such pain but also thank kind neighbors, like Doreen, who are always looking out for others.
Mallorie Bush Cochran was 22 weeks pregnant when she began chemotherapy to treat her cancer. Everyone was rallying behind this amazing woman and prayers were being said everyday. But when Ms. Jamina came to visit Mallorie in the hospital, it was a life-changing moment.
Just watch as Ms. Jamina takes Mallorie by the hand and starts to belt out the worship tune 'You Are Great' from Juanita Bynum. Mallorie lifts her hands in the air and together they praise the Lord. Mallorie's father caught the whole moment on camera and it's truly beautiful to watch it all unfold.
Ms. Jamina brought church to this hospital room and I can definitely feel the Spirit moving now. We're all praying for you Mallorie! Who else is going to sing along with these two?
When we give more to God, the more He shows us just how powerful and amazing He can be. He is so good and has given us so many blessings in our lives. And the love He has for us can never be fully understood. Don't you pray that we can be more like Him each day?
That's exactly what the lyrics of 'More Like Jesus' from Passion will remind you. And today, we get to hear a special acoustic performance including the story behind this beautiful song. He has given us mercy when we don't deserve it and more blessings than we can count.
God will truly open up our hearts to love Him even more. He made the ultimate sacrifice when He sent His only Son to die for our sins. Now, we are all forgiven and will live out our days in Heaven. Can I get an amen?
