Ember Rising (The Green Ember #3)

by S.D. Smith

We are small but determined. We are hard pressed but persistent. We are wounded, yet we live. We are humble but hopeful.

We had no idea that when you gave us all the light you did, you were guiding us to one day strike out at the darkness so fiercely.

It was odd how long, hard hours focusing entirely on the needs of others could make her feel most fully herself.

When freedom comes, will we be strangers to goodness?

we must do what is effective, not what is desperate.”

I wanted my little work to fit together with thousands of other little works to make a great mosaic of hope.
