 "Scripture truth takes effort, digging, and faith. Jesus' truth doesn't come in color, at last not at first.
 But as I sit with him, as I listen to the words he speaks and let them sink down deep and wide into me, the black and white begins to dance.
 And like Dorothy opening up the farmhouse door, God's truth paints vibrant, brilliant colors with large, confident strokes on the walls of my soul.
 His Spirit testifies with my spirit. YES! This is true, they say together. And I begin to practice his truth as my truth, regardless of the feelings that fleet and fly." 
Emily Freeman from Grace for the Good Girl
