“God knows very well what we need and that all He does is for our good. If we knew how much He loves us,
we would always be ready to face life—both its pleasures and it troubles.
The difficulties of life do not have to be unbearable. It is the way we look at them—through faith
or unbelief—that makes them seem so. We must be convinced that our Father is full of love for us and that He
only permits trials to come our way for our own good.”
-- Brother Lawrenc
"Let's take this act of loving God seriously and pray for one another."
-- Brother Lawrence
“OBSERVING CHRISTMAS: We want to hold on to the old customs and traditions because they strengthen
our family ties, bind us to our friends, make us one with all mankind for whom the child was born,
and bring us back again to the God who gave His only begotten Son, that 'whosoever believeth in Him
should not perish, but have everlasting life.'
So we will not 'spend' Christmas nor 'observe' Christmas. We will 'keep' Christmas -- keep it as it
is in all the loveliness of its ancient traditions.
May we keep it in our hearts, that we may be kept in its hope.”
-- Peter Marshall
“God's presence, in one moment, can accomplish what a lifetime of striving in the flesh could never accomplish. Therefore, seek His presence above all else.”
-- Anonymous
“If one remains before the Lord without will, he becomes like soft wax, a perfectly manageable instrument in the hands of God.”
-- Jeanne Guyon
“Freedom is meaningless without remembering the sacrifice it took to obtain it.”
-- Randy Lindsey
“When a man is clothed in practical righteousness, he is impregnable. Words are no defense against accusation,
but a good life is.”
-- Author Unknown
“We ought to give thanks for all fortune: if it is ‘good', because it is good, if ‘bad', because it works
in us patience, humility and the contempt of the world and the hope of our eternal country.”

C.S. Lewis
“Oh Lord forgive me for all the selfish years of wanting to be seen and praised by man. Let me seek only Your
praise where the unseen acts of service are worship and a sweet aroma to You. May I be broken and crushed to release
Your fragrance.”
