"It seems in all our troubles, God shows us many things, Like when we trust in Jesus, All the blessings that He brings. Sometimes when we suffer, it helps us all to grow, into God's humble children, who use their lives to show. So, put your mask behind you, let other's see your face, for this can help some people, witness God's forgiving grace. Encourage other people by the things that you've been through, for out of all your problems, this is how Christ uses you. " – Linda Yinger
