I'm legit angry, not really at anybody, even the yahoo in Atlanta. Just mad at the situation, and trying to be careful talking about it. She's scared, upset, and stressed about the situation we're in, and I don't want her to think I'm upset with her. It's honestly hard to just not have a breakdown myself, but I'm doing my best to play it cool.

Is that why you live at the gym? Makes sense. Somewhere to release everything.

This is the hard part for you, being everything you need to be. You can’t help her, yet keeping it normal for the girls and calming their fears. I know you are a Godly man, but he does have Tiffany in his hands, as he does us all. I know I’m not the best person to give guidance. Best thing I can say, faith is the hardest things we can believe in, we can’t see it, but we know it’s there (especially in our hearts)

Here's faith to me, and I've used this, even shared on Facebook. So many times we get our faith mixed up with our feelings. If everything is good, we feel our faith is strong. If things are bad, we feel our faith is weak. In reality, faith doesn't have anything to do with feelings. "Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen", from Hebrews 11. One of my favorite stories, book of Daniel, the 3 Hebrew children. They knew they were about to face death because they refused to deny God, and bow down to the king. Knowing this, they told the king that they knew God could save them, but here's where their faith really cane out. They made the statement "but if not, we still won't bow down". Their faith was knowing God was able, but even if he didn't save them, that they still believed in him enough that they refused to deny that. I try my best to live that, even if things are bad, I'm still gonna do my best to live for him. Didn't mean to get all preachy sounding, I just needed to hear it again.

I loved it. You reminded me of what I forgot myself. Hold strong to that faith, like I’ve said, I’m not the best person to give guidance, it’s a beacon when we look and need it.
