Eternal life does not begin with death; it begins with faith.
Samuel M. Shoemaker
For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
Romans 10:13
The King James Version
No amount of falls will really undo us if we keep picking ourselves up each time. We shall of course be very muddy and tattered children by the time we reach home. It is when we notice the dirt that God is more present in us; it is the very sign of his presence.

To me it seems that contemplation is joyful song of God’s love taken in mind, with sweetness of angels’ praise. This is jubilation, this is the end of perfect prayer and high devotion in this life.
Richard Rolle
My son, give me your heart, and let your eyes observe my ways.
Proverbs 23:26
The English Standard Version
If we knew how much He loves us, we should be always ready to receive equally and with indifference from His hand the sweet and the bitter; all would please that came from Him.
By the wood of the Cross the bitterness of the Law is changed into the sweetness of spiritual understanding, and the people of God can quench its thirst.
Origen
But I will sing of your strength, in the morning I will sing of your love;
for you are my fortress, my refuge in times of trouble.
Psalm 59:16
The New International Version
Kindness is like snow; it makes beautiful everything it covers.
I looked upon the works of God in this visible creation, and an awfulness covered me; my heart was tender and often contrite, and a universal love to my fellow creatures was increased in me.
John Woolman
But the Lord stood with me and strengthened me, so that the message might be preached fully through me, and that all the Gentiles might hear.
2 Timothy 4:17
The New King James Version
Constant prayer quickly straightens out our thoughts.
If we are to be saved from our futility we must recover the faculty of being still: we must make an enclave of silence within our own souls.
Gerald Vann
Who is a God like You, Pardoning iniquity And passing over the transgression of the remnant of His heritage? He does not retain His anger forever, Because He delights in mercy.
Micah 7:18
The New King James Version
True contentment is a real, ever an active virtue—not only affirmative but creative. It is the power of getting out of any situation all there is in it.
Thanksgiving is possible only for those who take time to remember.
Unknown
And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in the one body. And be thankful.
Colossians 3:15
The New Revised Standard Version
Gratitude is the inward feeling of kindness received.
Thankfulness is the natural impulse to express that feeling.
Thanksgiving is the following of that impulse.
