perfect words for a tough tough day

"Rely on Him. Rely on Him heavily. Rely on Him forever. And “press forward with a steadfastness in Christ, having a perfect brightness of hope.” You are doing God’s work. You are doing it wonderfully well. He is blessing you and He will bless you, even—no, especially—when your days and your nights may be the most challenging. Like the woman who anonymously, meekly, perhaps even with hesitation and some embarrassment, fought her way through the crowd just to touch the hem of the Master’s garment, so Christ will say to the women who worry and wonder and sometimes weep over their responsibility as [women], “Daughter, be of good comfort; thy faith hath made thee whole.”

Elder Jeffrey R. Holland
“‘Because She Is a Mother’,” Ensign, May 1997, 35

Had a LOVELY one hour meeting with unnamed boy, his family, the principal, and a district official today. He'll be center stage at the PRT meeting on Tuesday. Hopefully, we can get unnamed boy some necessary help for his anger! BTW, he has a new English teacher!
