<h2>God Works in Mysterious Ways</h2>With the 19th Anniversary of the day I became blind only 1 week away, I am left to reminisce on how I got to this point in my life.As a man of Faith I can so clearly look back on my life, my childhood years, those first 17 years of life and so clearly see how God's hands were at work all along.It is so clearly laid out just how God had been preparing me for what was to come. God knew that I would become blind on October 28, 2003 as it was all part of his plans. But God never does something for nothing. And therefor God spent the first 17 years of my life preparing me, molding me, guiding me to become a man who would take what was to happen and turn it around for good! I pray that today's episode blesses you. With love,Kevin <h1>Hey, it's Kevin!</h1>I hope you enjoyed today's episode! If there is ever anything I can do for you, please don't hesitate to reach out.
