Tessa Emily Hall, Purple Moon

“My own life is a fairy tale story—one that has already been written by the hands of God.”
Tessa Emily Hall, Purple Moon

“The moon is your reminder that God is never-changing, and you can always depend on Him to hear your prayers.”
Tessa Emily Hall, Purple Moon

“A woman's heart should be so hidden in God that a man has to seek Him just to find her.”
Max Lucado

“Faith is not the belief that God will do what you want. It is the belief that God will do what is right.”
Max Lucado, He Still Moves Stones: Everyone Needs a Miracle

“Forgiveness is unlocking the door to set someone free and realising you were the prisoner!”
max lucado

“To lead the orchestra, you have to turn your back on the crowd.”
Max Lucado

“You weren't an accident. You weren't mass produced. You aren't an assembly-line product. You were deliberately planned, specifically gifted, and lovingly positioned on the earth by the Master Craftsman.”
Max Lucado, The Christmas Candle
