Time Quote by Nicholas Sparks
““He finally understood that God’s presence was everywhere, at all times, and was experienced by everyone at one time or another. It had been him in the workshop as he’d labored over the window with Jonah; it had been present in the weeks he’d spent with Ronnie. It was present here and now as his daughter played their song, the last song they would ever share. In retrospect, he wondered how he could have missed something so obvious. God, he suddenly understood, was love in the purest form and in these last months with his children, he felt His touch as surely as he heard the music spilling from Ronnie’s hands.””
