Praying Church Quote by Bella Andre

“Maya didn't have much more distance in her. Still, she ran. Praying. She knew she should be praying for a church so that she could fall down on her knees and find some solace. But she didn't want to believe in a God who could take away a barely grown boy just trying to do some good.” quote by Bella Andre
