This was needed. Thank you. Our trials almost got the best of me today. Better late than never!

The everyday trials can be overwhelming at times, can’t they?

As our priest said tonight, perhaps those trials are there for a reason.......he was asking us to take something un-needed out of our lives during Advent. He has turned off his TV until the 26th.

I was thinking about taking shopping out of my life. LOL!

Feeling the same way. Trials overcome are sweeter than those met with failure. Yet failing a trial is yet another trial. Do you let your cross lay on the ground and declare yourself exhausted and beyond hope . . . or do you take up the cross again, and again, and yet again?
