Jesus also loved the black sheep.
In fact, He cares even more about the one that represents the 1. He left the 99 sheep to go after the one-the black sheep. Many of us were that black sheep, but Jesus saved us and rescued us.
Thank you, Lord. 🙏❤️

To those who are out there sick and suffering and still in addiction, call out to Jesus.
He can save you. You must give it all to him- He will take it away from you.

The latest numbers from the Knox County District Attorney's office show overdose deaths continue to impact families across the area.

The data tracks preliminary overdose deaths reported throughout the year. The numbers are considered "suspected" because final toxicology reports from the medical examiner can take weeks and sometimes months to complete.

In February, there were more than 20 suspected overdoses reported in Knox County. There has been one so far in March, with a total of 54 reported so far in 2026.

Amen!

Amen. Practice gratitude. 🙏

Let me say something that’s uncomfortable, but true.

Complaining every day is basically praying—just not to who you think you are.

Think about it. Prayer is repetition. It’s focus. It’s intention. It’s what you keep putting energy into. So when you wake up every morning and immediately start listing everything that’s wrong, everything that’s unfair, everything that pi**es you off—you’re not just venting. You’re training your mind. You’re reinforcing a reality built on lack, anger, and resentment.

And here’s the wild part: your brain doesn’t care whether the input is positive or negative. It just says, “Oh, this is what we’re focused on? Cool. Let’s find more of that.”

So you complain about your job—now you notice everything wrong with it.
You complain about people—now everyone feels fake or against you.
You complain about life—now life feels heavy, hostile, and stacked against you.

That’s not bad luck. That’s conditioning.

Complaining feels harmless because it gives you a quick release. It feels like relief. But long term, it’s poison. It keeps you stuck in the same mental loop, praying for more of what you say you hate.

And the opposite is just as real.

Gratitude isn’t pretending everything is perfect. It’s choosing where your attention goes. It’s saying, “Yeah, this is hard—but I’m still here. I’m still breathing. I’m still capable of changing this.”

That shift is power.

You don’t have to ignore pain. You don’t have to fake positivity. But you do have to be careful what you rehearse every single day in your mind. Because what you rehearse becomes your reality.

So maybe the move isn’t to complain less just to sound nicer.
Maybe the move is to realize that every word you repeat is a vote for the life you’re building.

Choose wisely who—or what—you’re praying to.

At Donna’s Dream we are all geared up and ready to celebrate New Year’s Eve clean and sober… with a grateful heart! 😉❤️🙏
A sober New Year's Eve focuses on connection, reflection, and fun without drugs or alcohol, with popular ideas including hosting game or movie nights, attending AA/NA events, enjoying mocktails, planning outdoor activities like hiking or skating, and focusing on goal-setting for the new year with supportive friends and family. It's about creating meaningful memories through activities that support recovery and well-being.
We have our weekly Bible Study tonight and then we will head to The Fourth Dimension Clubhouse for a gathering. Karaoke, Anyone?! ✨🎶🎤

May light reach every dark place, and may grace meet you exactly where you are. 🤍

On Christmas morning, we’re reminded that hope entered the world humbly and still meets us in our broken places. At Donna’s Dream, we trust Jesus with recovery, one day at a time. Grateful for the work happening here today. Merry Christmas.
