You are pulled from the wreckage
Of your silent reverie
You're in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort here”
This song has provided comfort and support to so many hearts all over the world. And it is the perfect compliment to her beautiful vocals and tone. Maelyn certainly deserved the trophy and we definitely haven’t seen the last of this incredible musician.

‘Last Man Standing’ actor Jonathan Adams sits down with The 700 Club to share his journey to faith. 51-year-old Jonathan Adams has appeared in numerous roles over the years, but he is most recognized for his character Chuck Larabee on FOX’s ‘Last Man Standing.’
Chuck is the friend and neighbor of Tim Allen’s character, Mike Baxter. The show was successful for six seasons on ABC before being cancelled. But an outpouring of support from fans caused the show to be resurrected on FOX.
Today, Jonathan Adams is opening up about another side of him that people may not know and that is his faith. Jonathan did not grow up in church. He explains that his family only visited on special occasions. “We were what I like to call CEO Christians. We were Christmas and Easter only and that was really all we would do.”
For years, Jonathan described himself as agnostic, but that all changed when he met his future wife, Monica. Monica was a devout Christ follower and she brought Jonathan closer to God than ever before. Now, he relies on his faith when looking at potential roles and carefully considers the content of scripts.
On the show, Jonathan’s character has a lot of different opinions than Mike Baxter. But they both come together on the topic of faith and family. The audience notices this key factor and it is a big reason why there is so much support for this show. I’m so glad that Jonathan was able to speak on his faith and inspire others to live a life for Christ.

Britain’s Got Talent contestant surprises girlfriend with a proposal on stage after his impressive audition. 27-year-old Jacob Jones is a barber, but his real passion is music.
Unbeknownst to Jacob, his girlfriend, Faye, filled out the application for him to be a part of the talent competition. He finally made it to the big stage and now he’s going to give it his all with a unique rendition of ‘You Are So Beautiful.’
“You are so beautiful
To me
You are so beautiful
To me
Can't you see
You're everything I hoped for
You're everything I need
You are so beautiful
To me”
Halfway through the song, judge Simon Cowell stopped the performance. He asked Jacob to tone down his vocals and really let his nature voice shine through. The music queued back up and Jacob gave it another shot. And that rendition really struck a chord with the judges.
After the performance, each judge raved about his sound and gave him a ‘yes’ to move on to the next round. But the best was still yet to come. Before Jacob exited the stage, he addressed the judges and audience. “I just wanted to do one thing before I came today. If I got four ‘yeses’ there was another ‘yes’ that I wanted to get.”
That’s when Jacob invited Faye up on stage for a moment that she will never forget. The crowd was going wild as he got down on one kneel for this unexpected proposal. And, of course, she said yes!
This young girl overcame her nerves to seriously impress with her speed painting talent show performance.
When you are a teenager, standing up in front of your peers can be a daunting challenge. But sometimes, there is a passion in your heart that has a desire to be shared with the world. That’s exactly what happened with this young girl and her recent talent show audition.
The video starts out by noting that this teen is very shy. However, when it was time for her school’s talent show, she came to her mother and said she wanted to try out for the show.
This 14-year-old has a hidden talent for art and she wanted to showcase that in a unique way. For weeks, she practiced her performance until she was confident and ready for the day of the auditions. Just watch as the young girl stands in front of the judges with a blank, black canvas. She starts to use white paint to create a design.
For a while, we’re not quite sure what she is painting, but the teen continues to meticulously add white details along the canvas. There is no moment of hesitation as she swiftly completes her drawing. Finally, the girl puts down her brush and flips the canvas upside down. That’s when the truly nature of the design is revealed. This was definitely an incredible speed painting and I’m so glad that this young girl was able to find the confidence to share her hidden talents with the world.
A kind rescuer saves a dying puppy found on the side of the road and helps it recuperate in the most incredible way.
Jenny Desmond, and her husband Jim, run a chimpanzee sanctuary in Liberia. One day, Jenny was riding down the road when she spotted a disheveled puppy. The dog was obviously in poor condition.
Jenny knew just by looking at the pup that he had an infection and was severely underweight. That’s when she confiscated the dog and took him back to the sanctuary. Jenny’s husband is a veterinarian, so he was able to determine that the puppy was starving and eating away at his own muscle.
Jim administered medication so that the poor animal would be able to eat and digest normally. Within days, his skin starts to get noticeably better. The dog’s fur is growing back and many of his open wounds heal.
The pup is soon named Snafu and he quickly makes friends with the other animals at the sanctuary. There’s even an adorable moment when a chimpanzee carries Snafu down the steps like a baby. In one year’s time, Snafu makes a complete recovery.
He has become a lively and lovable dog. Snafu even found his forever home in America with Jenny’s relatives. Thanks to this kind woman, Snafu is going to get all the love and attention that he deserves. This is such a perfect ending for this sweet puppy.
We need more people in the world like Jenny. Who else agrees with me?
