Faith Quote by Jim Butcher
““Michael half-smiled. “The Lord will never give you a burden bigger than your shoulders can bear, Harry. All we can do is face what comes and have faith.” I gave him a sour glance. “I need to get myself some bigger shoulders, then. Someone in accounting must have made a mistake.””
