I was driving the other day with my family when a car cut me off. I pulled out to go around him. As I sped up so did he. Faster and faster we both accelerated. Finally I put on the brakes so I could let him go. AS I slowed down, so did he. Now I was furious. I looked over at the driver so I

Consider this poem entitled “If We Trust”:
When the frosts are in the valley,
And the mountain tops are grey,

Man calls it fascination, God calls

You can be restored from your darkest
