Your beautiful words were a timely reminder to not get pulled down by the evil that we see. I have found this very challenging but now I have a wonderful reminder to look for the rose. Thank you for all your work. God Bless.

As a Catholic, I immediately thought of St. Therese when I read about your rose. I believe God can and does work outside of nature, but that He can also use simple things (roses strangely placed at the right time, or your golden mountains) to speak to us and remind us He is there.

I have also felt the crushing weight of evil in this world and wondered how we can overcome it. I find daily hope in reading the Sacred Scriptures. God promises that He will come to save us. It may not be tomorrow or even in my lifetime. But I believe He will make all things new, as He has said, and that calms my fears.
