Faith Quote by Julianna Deering
““Uncle Mason has been awfully good to me. My faith meant a great deal to me too after I was left an orphan," "I can understand how you felt." He looked up again, making his expression exaggeratedly sincere. "At the tender age of nine, I was left an orphan." "You were not," she said with a giggle. "I was," he insisted. "But, being so young, I hadn't a clue what to do with it, so I sent it back.””
