Comfort Quote by Karen Scalf Linamen
““Answers...God knows, I've begged for them," Gail mused. "I'm beginning the think sometimes there are no answers. I'm beginning to think sometimes there's only grief...and comfort. I think some answers will have to wait till we're in Heaven, asking Jesus face to face why we encountered the things we did." Scott sighed. "Easier said than done." "I'm not saying we shouldn't look for solutions," Gail was quick to add. "But we can't wait until all the pieces fall into place before we reach out to help...or reach out for help.””
