Lord, thank you for the blessings and the trials.  Thank you for the privilege of knowing what it means to be well-cared for in seasons of our lives.  When hard times come, I know we get so consumed.  But, let us remember your blessings.  May we remember that Winter becomes Spring, darkness becomes dawn, and our trials become our victories.  May each real estate professional live in the hope of this truth.  Amen!
