The humility of Christ is not the moderation of keeping one’s exact place in the scale of being, but rather that of absolute dependence on God and absolute trust in him, with the consequent ability to move mountains.  The secret of the meekness and the gentleness of Christ lies in his relation to God.

H. Richard Niebuhr

For the Lord God is a sun and shield; the Lord bestows favor and honor.  No good thing does he withhold from those who walk uprightly.  O Lord of hosts, blessed is the one who trusts in you!

Psalm 84:11-12
The English Standard Version

George Washington Carver famously addressed Congress in 1921, extolling the virtues of peanuts.  When asked by one congressman how he learned what he knew, Carver replied, “From an old book…the Bible.”  The congressman asked, “Does the Bible tell about peanuts?”  Carver replied, “No Sir, but it tells about the God who made the peanut.  I asked Him to show me what to do with the peanut, and He did.”

The world is full of discouragers.  We have a Christian duty to encourage one another.  Many a time a word of praise or thanks or appreciation or cheer has kept a man on his feet.  Blessed is the man who speaks such a word.

We are, not metaphorically but in very truth, a Divine work of art, something that God is making, and therefore something with which He will not be satisfied until it has a certain character.  It is natural for us to wish that God had designed for us a less glorious and less arduous destiny; but then we are wishing not for more love but for less.

C. S. Lewis

Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes, and shrewd in their own sight!

The happiest heart that ever beat
Was in some quiet breast
That found the common daylight sweet
And left to Heaven the rest.
