Most people have plans to accomplish good things in life. Of course there are some exceptions who focus on violence, hatred and other related stuff.

Closed Doors
I’ve never believed in coincidences. Nothing happens just like that or for no reason. We may not understand why, we may not be aware of how circumstances brought us to where we are today. But I do believe in divine providence, God is constantly at work striving to make the best of our choices. OftenContinue reading “Closed Doors”
