“Now I want you to know, brothers and sisters, that what has happened to me has actually served to advance the gospel. As a result, it has become clear throughout the whole palace guard and to everyone else that I am in chains for Christ.” Philippians 1:12-13 NIV
Inspiration from Devotional Treasures: “In Luke 21:10-13 Christ tells us of coming trials for believers, but He highlights how such trials can serve the Gospel in Verse 13 – “It will lead to an opportunity for your testimony.” In Philippians we find Paul in prison, proclaiming that even his imprisonment progresses the Gospel.
Dear reader, let us look at ourselves and our circumstances (good and bad) – do we serve the Gospel in them? Is your illness or unemployment an opportunity to share the Good News?”

That sounds exciting! The eclipse was only partial where I live. However, I saw a full eclipse here a few years ago. It was amazing. Sending love, hugs and prayers your way! 🙏🐾🤗
