Thought for the Day 2/27/2020


Lord, when we long for life without difficulties,
remind us that oaks grow strong in contrary winds 
and diamonds are made under pressure.
~ Peter Marshall

We are hedged and pressed in on every side, 
troubled and oppressed in every way,
BUT not cramped or crushed; we suffer 
embarrassments and are perplexed, and
unable to find a way out, BUT not driven to despair;
we are pursued, persecuted and hard-driven;
we are struck down to the ground,
BUT never struck out and destroyed.
~ 2 Corinthians 4:8-9, Amplified
