Awesome
Only 2 defining forces sacrificed themselves for you:
The American Soldier and Jesus Christ. One died for your freedom, the other for your soul.

My rock,
He trains my hands for war and my fingers for battle.

Thanks everyone. It was a long time coming for me to be able to produce something of this quality. I am so glad I took that course learned more in ten days than I could have in ten years by myself.
