I looked at the full 108 and there was none that did not confirm to me the presence of G*d.
So many of them are in my daily prayers to be a better person.
Thank you again for this blessing!

I explored the site. Interesting. Still searching for the historical aspects of the 108.
If I find anything, I'll be sure to share here.
