”So grateful! ?????? I live every day grateful for another opportunity to make an impact in this world. Mediocrity is not in my dictionary. I am a living miracle, a walking testimony, the apple of God’s eye. I am a planted seed that has grown deep roots. I cannot be uprooted. My life is mapped out by The Lord.
