About This Quote

It is easy to become disillusioned with the circumstances of our lives compared to others'. But in the presence of God, He gives us a deeper peace and joy that transcends it all. In the presence of God, we find a different perspective on life. When we are surrounded by beauty, art and music, we see life differently.

We see the world through a new lens and learn to appreciate our circumstances more. In His presence, we know that we are always loved and that all things will work together for good here on earth.
