Christianity Quote by J.D. King
““Although healing practices are periodically marginalized, they do not remain so for long. In one way or another, healing always finds an occasion for reemergence. In the midst of inexpressible suffering, it seems that someone will always believe in the beauty and wonder of the gospel.””
