Quotes by Jan Thompson (?)

“My dad had a saying when Claude and I couldn’t decide what to do about something,” Emmeline added. “He said sometimes we need to retreat, spend time with God before we can move forward. You need to meet with God, Seb. Don’t forget God.”
― Jan Thompson, His Wake-Up Call

“Sometimes it’s more important to trust God without knowing what’s going to happen than to try planning it all out ahead of time.”
― Jan Thompson, Smile for Me
