    • I’m With You

      From lost123 September 1, 2008

      We are never alone when we have God on our side. Turn to him and allow your friends to help you through this. You are beautiful and Mr. right will come along but for now just take a step back and try to get your life back. Focus on your daughter and allow god to carry you through this. For when he closes a door he opens a window. Take some time to look through the widow. May God bless you.
