My dad is still Christian Scientist. My moms not, and Im not. But

My dad is still Christian Scientist. My moms not, and Im not. But I believe in God, and that theres a higher power and an intelligence thats bigger than us and that we can rely on. Its not just us, thinking we are the ones in control of everything. That idea gives me support. – Ellen DeGeneres
