Roses Amidst Thorns
"Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:" Psalm 103:2 April is a bitter-sweet month for Brian and myself. Or another way of saying it, "it's an opportunity to seek for the roses amidst the thorns!" April was the month when Brian and I entered the world of chronic illness. This
