If my story touches your heart, its not because of me. It is because our God wanted to use my pain and suffering from long ago to change a life in the right now, to change it from the inside out, and to make it new and shining and bright, with a value far beyond your wildest dreams and imagination. This story is true! Its about God, who is real and wants you to be Hisall you are and all you have!
