Quotes by Abigayle Claire (?)

“You don’t heal in a single moment. It’s day by day, a little at a time. The time it takes doesn’t mean God’s not healing you, or that you need to change tactics.”
― Abigayle Claire, Martin Legacy

“So what do you do on the days you can’t move on?”
Julie smiled, though it wobbled a little. “Trust God and try again tomorrow.”

“None of us here deserved God’s saving grace either, but we accepted it anyway because we needed it,” he continued. “Life isn’t about deserving things. It’s about doing the best we can with what we have.”
