Robert, You are certainly right..."God is Great" lots of people don't realize that and I am so proud that you do!! He does answer prayer..if we pray that His will be done in our lives. You are a special young man that can do great things in God's name because you realize this at a young age.

I have known young Robert since he was around 5 or younger. As I have found out about him having this illness, I was sad and myself, and a few churches I attend in Morgantown and Bowling Green, have been praying to see that he will overcome it. What a blessing to see him home.
