There is a very important reason for sharing Top Cat’s story. Many of us have been where Top Cat was – feeling like a loser and a failure. God designed Top Cat for something special, but it wasn’t what everyone expected. In the very same way God has a plan for your life, and that may not be what everyone is expecting! It is our prayer that you will discover how much God loves you and His plan for your life. God created you to do something only you can do! God loves you and His second chance for all of us is His Son, Jesus Christ.
