I have a friend. She is BEAUTIFUL and SWEET and SO SO kind. She smiles EVERY TIME I see her and her energy is contagious and addictive. She is simply a JOY to be around. And, today, I think of my friend because she has been struggling with a terrible illness I didn’t even know about it.
It hurts my heart to even write this, but it reminds me of how life is hard and unfair at times. Good things happen to GREAT people like her and it is terrible. And while I can hate the world and lash out in resentment, I am quickly reminded of God’s love and the power of prayer. “Faith is substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen” (Hebrews 11:1).

Love Erica Cook and her quotes. I totally agree – we need to support each other more as women. I hope we all make it too!!!

I love the second quote especially— I hate when women compete with each other— there is room for everyone!
