There are good days and days too when it seems like all the hours have colluded against you, when everything you have to offer up seems so puny against all that has risen up in enmity. Today is one such day. Yet, your words and all the quotes you have shared here offer tender hope that even if I have failed to live today in strength and in prayer for others, if God wills it, I will have tomorrow to try to live better.<br /><br />Thank you so much.Caitlynne Gracehttps://writingonmyheart.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6017539925620642059.post-57420367700359570422022-04-24T02:07:37.626-06:002022-04-24T02:07:37.626-06:00That quote stood out for me too, as it did for Che...That quote stood out for me too, as it did for Cheryl.
