Happy Thursday. One day away.

March 27, 2025: Breakthrough is imminent. You have come a long way and have patiently waited for an opportunity to move ahead, and now is the time when the proverbial fog will clear and the sun will break through the clouds. You can now forge ahead with clarity of mind and renewed strength. A new day is dawning, says the Lord. Psalm 42:11 Why are you cast down, O my soul? And why are you disquieted within me? Hope in God; for I shall yet praise Him, the help of my countenance and my God.
