“I want you to be resilient. I want you filled with tough faith. And I want you able to laugh at yourself while still liking yourself. Faith is not idealism. Faith is realism rooted in a settled joy that all things work together for your good. Today’s training is ingraining this conviction. Rejoice and be glad in it! I AM.

Everlastingly,
Your Dad
