YOU WILL BE TOUCHED

Get ready to be touched by the Presence of the only Living God (the Father, the Son our Savior, and the Holy Spirit) with inspiring messages and lessons the Lord has allowed me to share with His loving church. I pray that the Lover of my soul fills your every need, especially the need your soul craves most, which is to get to know the Lover of your soul, the one who formed you with His very own Loving Hands and gave you every characteristic, attribute and quality you possess; such as the natural color of your hair, eyes, and skin tone and even down to your body form, facial appearance and stature. You see, He has not made any mistake with you, He has made you beautiful and lovely to His Loving Eyes and He adores you deeply.
