    Henry Ward Beecher wrote, “Difficulties are God’s errands and when we are sent upon them, we should esteem it a proof of God’s confidence.”

Like the high school graduate who fell down the platform stairs just after receiving his diploma (in front of 4,000 people). 2. A waiter in a restaurant told of slipping on a wet ...read more
