Every moment

“Every moment and every event of every man's life on earth plants something in his soul.”

  1. This is VERY, VERY true. Sometimes we do not see this when events unfold. Only later do we realize that yes indeed, there was a hidden purpose in it all. Every event does leave an imprint on our souls.

  2. Yes, Hannah, you are absolutely right; and there are no accidents. Our Heavenly Father cares for each one of us at every moment of our lives: and there are so very many lessons in a single moment! Thank you very much for writing, and may God bless you.

  3. Much like the phrase "We never touch someone so lightly we don't leave a trace."

    Thankfully, all the good marks in our souls are bigger and brighter than the bad.

  4. Exactly, Oddyoddyo13! And our Guardian Angels are there to help us, too; my own Angel has saved me from more than one peril, of that I am certain. Thank you very much for writing, and may God bless you.
