No matter how smart or determined or gifted I may be, I don’t have the stamina, confidence, hope, wit, wisdom, purity, peace, perspective, patience, money, or health to handle all the challenges I will face. The only way to obtain the kind of strength I need is to trust in God’s unfailing love, drawing conclusions for my life that are based on trust and not on fear. (The Tender Words Of God)
Sometimes you feel great; and sometimes you don’t feel anything. It is then that you learn to use the shield of faith.
Good faith means loving the truth more than we love ourselves. (from Faith and Doubt)
The only limit to our realization of tomorrow will be our doubts of today.
God will not demand more from you than you can do. Whatever God asks of you, He will give you the strength to do.
Don’t let the fear of what could happen take away your ability to enjoy life now.
I know that sometimes it seems like nothing is happening in terms of our
spiritual growth. There are times when we don’t really feel like we are
changing, because as we look at ourselves every day, we don’t
necessarily see any changes. But as we are walking by faith day by day,
month by month, and year by year, we are being transformed.
Great faith results in total surrender to His will
A saint realizes that it is God who engineers his circumstances;
consequently there are no complaints, only unrestrained surrender to
Jesus. Never try to make your experience a principle for others, but
allow God to be as creative and original with others as He is with you.
If you will give God your right to yourself, He will make a holy experiment out of you— and His experiments always succeed.
