Joey, there is the family you are born into and there is the family that God assembles for you to provide friendship and guidance in difficult moments like these. Your walls may be empty, but I assure you our hearts are full of love and appreciation for the wonderful person you are. It takes extraordinary courage to share your pain and be vulnerable with us. This demonstrates considerable faith and allows the opportunity for God's spirit to move through us all and deliver His messages to you.

You are loved. You are valued. You are special beyond measure. Rest assured, you are one of us-- one of our family-- and you will NEVER be alone. God bless you, Joey.🙏
