#234- Isn't that the truth! He loves us so much more than our minds can even comprehend. An that truth tickles me pink. It's great to know we are loved without reservation and beyond measure.
Scribbling Thanks,

He is there, in the depression and the anxiety. You are a lucky soul to know that, so many miss Him in the painful opportunities.
