    We’re in a war. In a war, unfortunately there are casualties. Genesis 6:3 promises 120 years. God had NOTHING to do with this! God Is Love And Love Is God! The enemy is a Defeated foe. In the “Secret Place Of The Most High”, abide. I know that our Lord and Savior is with you ( He Promises To NEVER leave us nor forsake us ). We will never understand why certain things are allowed to happen but we find comfort in knowing whose we are and that God’s Got Mary And God’s Got The Two Of You. You will see Mary again. My prayer is that you turn this tragedy into a triumph for The Kingdom in Jesus Name! ?? It’s all about souls for The Kingdom..
