“I think we’ve all had times in our lives where we feel utterly broken. I know I have. But, when I was younger, I was taught to pray. So, when I felt absolutely alone with no one to talk to, I remembered to kneel down and talk to God. I poured my soul out to…

“The loss of a loved one is one of the most devastating news anyone can receive. For me, that news came to me when I was 9 years old. My mom was pregnant with her 4th child; a soon to be baby boy. We had a bedroom ready for his arrival, and family…
