Of all my joy,
My confidence,
And hope.

I literally raced to get my journal and find one of my favorite quotes be C.H. Spurgeon:
“Make Him the source, the center, the circumference of all they soul’s range of delight. Rest no longer satisfied in they dwarfish attainments. Aspire to a higher, a nobler, a fuller life. Upward to heaven! Nearer to God!” Charles Spurgeon
Blessings to you now, and always, Ruth.
