Quotes For The Soul: Time
“Prayer becomes more meaningful as we counsel with the Lord in all of our doings, as we express heartfelt gratitude, and as we pray for others.” -David A. Bednar

Jerry: “Right around the time my old man started getting sick she was always just there. I could have gotten help from friends but didn’t need to because she was just there. That’s when I knew, around that time.”
Heather: “I don’t know. It was just weird. We were always around each other so I can’t just say exactly when. Like he said, his dad was getting sick so we were coming to Houston a lot. My dad was also sick so we had that connection.” Continue reading “Love Talks: Bond”
Music
It is in the moments when we just sit
silently in the car after a dinner date
nostalgically listening to music that
I am reminded of the true friendship
our love stands on.
