If you have ever exercised for an extended amount of time, you know that injuries are bound to happen sometime down the road. Have you ever gotten an injury that seemed to be more painful during recovery than when it actually happened? Most recoveries are painful, that’s just the way God created it to be.

Am I Blind and Deaf?
Nature. In all its beauty and luster, can one be so hardened and hurt as to not see a single sign of its loveliness?
