I believe God created us all with a purpose and a plan for our lives. Thoughout life's journey we have a multitude of experiences which help shape us into who we are and who we are to become. Our experiences create beliefs. These beliefs/ experiences get rooted in emotions and effect the way we deal with life and other people. The keys to a joyful life are in the healing of our hearts through and the understanding of the love and grace of Jesus Christ.
