A Collection of Quotes I’m Digging.

I love to record verses/quotes that inspire, motivate, and move me.   I’ve gathered several in the last few months through various social media outlets- Instagram, Pinterest, Facebook, blogs, etc.  that I’d like to share.  (Note some that I found are attributed, others are not.)

Leave me a comment with a favorite quote of yours…I want to keep adding to my list!
