Angie and family, I am encouraged that you have the "Serenity to accept the things you cannot change, Strength to change those things you can, and the Wisdom to know the difference. I thank the Lord in knowing you have that. May God continue to abundantly bless you beyond all that you could ever ask or think! Praise Him, Cheryl Thompkins and Family
