Strength and Gratitude

I’ve often wondered about both, strength and gratitude. I must say there have been times I have felt strong and times I could just crumble. I have felt both physical and internal strength. With the latter comes the ability to accept and cope with the less than wonderful trials that life can throw at us. Strength can also be spiritual. When our faith is unwavering, especially through trying times,…
