Quotes From "Grace For The Good Girl: Letting Go Of The Tryhard Life" By Emily P. Freeman

Picture a girl with her arms full of small packages, too many to hold all at once.

To set your mind is to recollect truth that already belongs to you. Emily P. Freeman

6
Even though I may feel unsafe and unacceptable, I am accepted in Christ. Emily P. Freeman
