“To all who have supported me throughout this journey, you are so many to tag, but you know who you are, I am so grateful for your love and support. When things became so rough, God gave me you to fuel me to strive harder and continue walking and trusting Him. God knows and sees your heart, I hope that God will use me mightily to bless you in return. I love you!” Jowee added.
