I brought a friend two weeks ago and the first story told that night was her story. She couldn't believe it. I had told her she would eventually hear her story, but to have it be the first one was truly a gift from God. She's continuing to attend meetings. It works when you work it. :)happygirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16554653800961247808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904990175885851041.post-31298917253497772722012-09-19T15:28:23.253-04:002012-09-19T15:28:23.253-04:00TURN ON THE WATER!!!
