Truly God is Good all time and as we reflect upon this loss to our family we are reminded that all things work for the good of them that love God Devonne will truly be missed by us all but God had a greater plan in his kingdom that needed to be fulfilled and only Devonne could do that mission!!! It helps to let us all know we have a mission to complete and once that is done we all must be ready to go home to meet the Lord and fulfill the next assignment! May God strengthen and enrich you my family with his love.
