Listen Quote by Emily T. Wierenga
““Listen to me. You can do all things through Christ who gives you strength. Not through you—through him—and this is something you repeat over and over, when your baby won’t stop crying, when you’re so tired you’re about to fall over, when you look at him and don’t feel the love you think you’re supposed to feel. You can do all things, through Christ, who gives you love, who gives you patience, who gives you rest.””
