BLESSING OF THE DAY - May God bless you in the times of your ambivalence, when you are unsure and indecisive. At those moments may you reclaim the unique truth God has planted deep within you and is calling out of you. May you speak with confidence and may you trust the word of God in you that longs to have a voice. May your confidence draw out truth from those around you. May the God of Confidence bless you. --Maxine Shonk, OP
