Getting my car serviced and walked across the lot to my favorite local coffee shop. They had a tray full of free decorative stones with words of encouragement and meditation (strength, blessed, courage, forgiven, etc). I chose Be Still because it‘s truly a struggle for me. What word(s) would you choose?

Happy Friday!
