A special quote from Kristen: "God will always provide you with the things you need. You may not have answers to WHY or HOW but if you believe and have a heart for God you will never go without things you need. The path may be rough but the lessons you learn along the way will bring you closer to GOD. Thank him for the all the blessings in your life and all those blessings you have yet to receive. "
