Everyone Matters…

Nothing is random. Every life is created with a special purpose in mind. Our lives are not to be taken for granted. We are here to serve others which brings honor and glory to our Creator. Serve Him well, with all your heart. Everyone is important in the grand plan. Everyone matters…

Get away from the negative. If something big happens, you will hear about it. Pursue what brings light and life into your life…
