Weekly Inspiration
Today is part of your story but it is not the rest of your story.
Today is a beautiful gift even if there are still some parts of life you wish were different. Somehow, with God, today is part of a bigger story… a redemption in the works. We don’t serve a do-nothing God. He is always doing something and that something will be used for an eventual good. ❤️
