I was born to parents who abandoned me as an infant to a poor widowed grandmother. My life proves God has a good plan for every life regardless of how empty and hopeless that life is seen by everyone. My story tells of the beautiful life of love, purpose, and peace available when we accept Jesus Christ. And if we do our best to believe and follow the core values taught by my wise grandmother, sharing my private life of abandonment, sadness, loneliness, poor, and being made to feel unworthy will surely give hope to all who read--a life born empty with no one and a life rejected by everyone. But God had a plan for me. His plan was a grandmother.
