    I googled the quote and read the whole poem! The Easter quote is right at the end! Wow, I had forgotten the sparkle and the freshness and pungency of Hopkins poetry. Thanks for reminding me!

Faith and Hope with April Yamasaki

I write, edit, teach, preach, and mentor in a variety of venues, platforms, and publications. The common thread? To encourage and inspire people of all ages to live with faith and hope. I’d love for you to join me!

In all the challenges, joys, and ordinary moments of daily life, God’s mercies never fail. They are new every morning (Lamentations 3:22-23).
