Change of Address

Please be advised that I have moved. I received a call from God, the chief

Architect, and he informed me that my new home was complete.

You all knew that I had been working on my residency, sending up timber,

packing up and getting ready to go.

Well, my new home is finished and what a sight to behold.

It is located on an exclusive estate area.

I can dine at the Master’s bountiful table while listening to an angelic choir

and best of all; my Heavenly Father is here with me in all His Glory.

Before I go, let me give you my new address:

My Story
