One of my favorite quotes from A Cup of Dust by Susie Finkbeiner..."Life has a way of taking what we know and tangling it all in knots. It ain't gonna be easy on you to know. The truth never is. But you're a brave girl. And strong in the Lord. Every storm has a beginning and every storm's got an end. They never last forever," she whispered. "God is the one who saves. Don't forget it."
