Faith Thoughts Found

Looking back through one of the many, old, spiral notebooks I poured my thoughts into from 6th grade through college, I found a page with these sayings. Some of them have stuck by my side through the years. I put those in bold. The rest are no less meaningful. They still gave me some straight talk that I really needed to hear. I hope you enjoy them.
