I understand what you are saying . . . that’s why I have to refrain from punching people sometimes lol!

So exciting for you! All those years of hardship has made you into the person you are today. I truly believe we are placed on this earth for a reason and I can’t wait to see how you will help others in so many ways to become the person they want to be.

An example: no doubt we have experienced many blessings after our house burning down, but I just don’t believe God decided to burn down my house on purpose. I won’t punch you (or anyone) in the face if you disagree though.

Great post, Amy.

A priest actually just brought up the joy of the cross in the confessional on Saturday, so it is a blessing to see tangible examples of that in your post. Thank you for sharing!
