“It’s not weakness when we find ourselves in our closets “losing it” and snot-crying into our pillows. It’s not weakness when our strength fails us and we say, “I can’t do this Lord, please take it and do the miraculous.””
This is exactly what I needed to hear, when I needed to hear it. I feel like Mark was writing this book to me. And that is the Lord working in your life to help you grow and mature to be everything He intends for you to be.
*Hugs* and lots of prayers for you and your family.
