"So it will be with the resurrection of the dead. The body that is sown is perishable, it is raised imperishable; it is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory; it is sown in weakness, it is raised in power; it is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body."
Josh my brother we cannot express on words what our heart feels for you. Your smile compassion and spirit has infected me. We are standing with you in this time of celebration and grief. We love you. I love you most of all Jesus loves you.
