Take him at his word. There's a song called the goodness of God. And, um, it dawned on me one day when I was listening to it, that all my life, every step of the way, he was there being who he says he is reaching out for me. He was there the whole time, but I didn't know it or I turned away from him, you know, but he was reaching out for me. But so just know that the goodness of God is surrounding you, reaching out for you right now.
Imagine growing up surrounded by chaos, where substance abuse was the norm and stability was a foreign concept. That's the world Nancy Ann was born into.
