“I’d like to take this opportunity to just thank God for how amazing He has been in my life, this is the very same God that has seen me through moving back home when things weren’t working out in the big city, the same God that gave me strength to speak highly of Him & His work even when it was evident that nothing in my life was going according to my plans – I’m so glad I trusted your plans and promises made on Jeremiah 29:11 & Isaiah 60:22.”
