It’s sacred. It’s layered. It’s sometimes loud and sometimes silent.

They said someone would take his life before age eighteen, They said a blind man had no business in real estate. No business in insurance.

Nevertheless, I will also attempt to describe God's goodness through it all. Seen and unseen. In spite of a multitude of attempts by all those ascribed by Satan who would take me down, and my own trove of unwise decisions, I survived. God is good, and He saved a wretch like me for His ultimate plan and for His glory.
