“Life is so generous a giver but we, judging its gifts by their covering, cast them away as ugly or heavy or hard. Remove the covering and you will find beneath it a living splendor, woven of love, by wisdom, with power. Welcome it, grasp it, and you touch the angel's hand that brings it to you. Everything we call a trial or a sorrow or a duty, believe me that angel's hand is there, and the wonder of an overshadowing presence. Life is so full of meaning and purpose, so full of beauty beneath its covering, that you will find earth but cloaks your heaven. Courage then to claim, that is all.” BelieveHardHandsEarthLife IsPurposeFunHeavenWonderJudgingDutySorrowAngelClaimsCastsUglyHeavyTrialsWelcomeGenerousRemoveBelieve In MeGiverCoveringWovenSplendorCloaksOvershadowing Author:Giovanni Giocondo
