A Great Joy
Bill then related how he had lain awake nearly all night. Down in
the pit of his depression, new hope had somehow been born. The
thought flashed through his mind, “If they can do it, I can do it!”
Over and over he said this to himself. Finally, out of his hope,
there burst conviction. Now he was sure. Then came a great joy.
At length, peace stole over him and he slept.
