On the days I have to work for every penny I say to myself, "If I was eager to claim the easy days, then I should take the bad as well." Like taking it as a whole.

That is so true...nothing can compare to the Living Word coming alive in your spirit. <br /><br />Thanks for sharing Raquel, <br /> a fellow follower,<br /> MonicaMonicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13009739462083869033noreply@blogger.com
