Finding strength in challenging times

Finding strength in challenging times! Yea, that's a tough one. I don't know about you, but, my tough times often come at me with a vengeance. In some ways, I can feel as though one thing hits me before I've fully recovered from the first one. On and on it can go leaving us barely catching [...]
