My apologies for no scripture reference today. I just have a few thoughts I need to put into words. First of all, in light of yesterday's post, I want to be sure I was clear about happiness.

Know that His love is nearly unfathomable when we are able to surrender ourselves to His care. Blessings on you this day.
