There is not a burden but He can remove, no darkness but He can dispel, no weakness but He can change to power, no fears but He can calm, no worthy aspiration but He can guide and justify.We are not to look at ourselves. The more we dwell upon our own imperfections, the less strength we shall have to overcome them…
