"I've been a Christian since seventh grade. That's when I accepted Jesus Christ. It took until I was 55 years old to really understand what that relationship was supposed to be. This process has brought about changes in character and changes in the way I approach relationships with people. It changes the very notion of the man that I'm supposed to be on this Earth." - A grateful and faith filled Steve Had
“All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. God is our merciful Father and the source of all comfort. 4 He comforts us in all our troubles so that we can comfort others. When they are troubled, we will be able to give them the same comfort God has given us.”
