My story could take a lifetime to tell, but the truth is that God can make it splendidly short.
Life shows us that the people we love the most will disappoint us the most, potentially abandon us, turn their backs on us, maybe even turn on us and in the end break our hearts in a million pieces. God shows us through the most unlikely people and places, that He will never do any of the above. He will embrace you, love you, and heal your broken heart when people like Ben and Beth Ann Crouse, Benetta Wallen, Shelley Anthony, and Jeff Smith heed God's call and become His hands and feet in an ugly and hurtful world. The story of my life and what God has done in it boils down to the simple truth that while the world and even yourself can be led to believe that you were in the wrong place at precisely the wrong time, God can heal and grow your heart and show you that you were truly in just the right place, at just the right time.
May God continue to bless Genesis in the same way He has blessed and grown me through Genesis.
