Warmest Christian greetings to you and your family as, together, we navigate uncharted waters.

A very long time ago, right here in this world,
there was a garden.
In the garden, everything was wonderful.
The world was full of laughing
and playing and smiling and fun.
There was nothing bad, ever.
There was no one sad, ever.
And best of all… God was there!

While we may not comprehend God's plan and purposes in current events, we know that God is forever sovereign over all of creation.
