Veronica- We haven't seen each other in years but we went to the same church and Sunday school for years when we were little. I saw the way you cared for Zion even when you were so scared of being a young mom. You are an amazing mom. I'm sending you all my prayers and warmest thoughts. There are no words to comfort you, I know, but find comfort in those that surround you. You're not alone. If you ever find yourself doubting, remember: "10But he knows the way that I take;
when he has tested me, I will come forth as gold.
11My feet have closely followed his steps;
I have kept to his way without turning aside.
12I have not departed from the commands of his lips;
I have treasured the words of his mouth more than my daily bread.
13But he stands alone, and who can oppose him?
He does whatever he pleases.
14He carries out his decree against me,
and many such plans he still has in store.
15That is why I am terrified before him;
when I think of all this, I fear him.
16God has made my heart faint;
the Almighty has terrified me.
17Yet I am not silenced by the darkness,
by the thick darkness that covers my face."
Zion will be with you forever.
