Gramma always had homemade cookies lying around. I always remember her having some of these molasses cookies in a tupperware container on top of her fridge. You may not have had the privilege of knowing her before her dementia set in, but when you taste these, you will be taken directly to her kitchen with her. I hope you enjoy them as much as all the people over the years have.

You can be forgiven and made right with God. He loves you and gave Himself for you.

Let me know how I can pray for you or if you have any questions about faith and spirituality!
