I Thank God for You

Right now I’m in awe at the goodness of God and how each one of us has a unique purpose for being alive at this appointed time. God sent his son Jesus Christ that we might have life and have it more abundantly.

Each one of the marchers added to the strength of the movement that resulted in passage of the 1965 Voting Rights Act signed by President Lyndon B. Johnson on […]
