Morning Stretch and Praise Break
Physical activity has been absent from my life. This morning, I decided to change that beginning with a walk, and a stretch and praise break. Covid-19 isn’t to blame.

I, yes I, am the one who comforts you. So why are you afraid of mere humans, who wither like the grass and disappear?
