"You have 3 choices when bad things happen to you: You can let it destroy you, define you, or develop you." (by Rick Warren) This quote has carried me thru many of rough patches in life so I am sharing it with you as the days ahead unfold. My prayer for you is that God will give you peace and strength and that his love will embrace you thru this tragedy.
