We wake up, get work, go back home and rinse and repeat – or at least it feels that way sometimes.

When my time is done and I am gone, I hope people would remember my love for God. I hope they’d tell of the radical faith and dependency I had on Him across all areas of my life, and share of all of the incredible supernatural stories that came from doing life with the Most High. Read more>>

That I truly cared about others. I wanted everyone to have fun when I was entertaining them. That kids mattered the most. That I valued family and friends. That when I loved I loved with my all heart. That God and my family were most important in my life. Peace to you all. Thanks for reading. Read more>>
