He who hath heard the Word of God can bear His silences.
Ignatius of Loyola
But for you who fear my name the sun of righteousness shall rise, with healing in its wings. You shall go forth leaping like calves from the stall.

The Revised Standard Version
God is as great in minuteness as He is in magnitude.

A man should be encouraged to do what the Maker of him has intended by the making of him, according as the gifts have been bestowed on him for that purpose. His happiness, and that of others around him depends upon such a relation to the Maker’s will.
Thomas Carlyle
Be merciful unto me, O God, be merciful unto me: for my soul trusteth in thee: yea, in the shadow of thy wings will I make my refuge, until these calamities be overpast.
Psalm 57:1
The King James Version
Come and share a pot of tea,
My home is warm and my friendship’s free.

We have been the recipients of the choicest bounties of heaven; we have been preserved these many years in peace and prosperity; we have grown in number, wealth, and power as no other nation has ever grown. But we have forgotten God! Intoxicated with unbroken success, we have become too self-sufficient to feel the necessity of redeeming and preserving grace, too proud to pray to the God who made us.
Abraham Lincoln
Fight the good fight of the faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called when you made your good confession in the presence of many witnesses.
1 Timothy 6:12
The New International Version
The sermon of your life in tough times ministers to people more powerfully than the most eloquent speaker.

God answers prayer in the best way, not sometimes, but every time, although the immediate manifestation of the answer in the domain in which we want it may not always follow.
Oswald Chambers
“Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.”

It is cynicism and fear that freeze life; it is faith that thaws it out, releases it, sets it free.
Harry Emerson Fosdick
As you come to him, the living Stone—rejected by humans but chosen by God and precious to him—you also, like living stones, are being built into a spiritual house to be a holy priesthood, offering spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.
1 Peter 2:4-5
The New International Version
We should be more interested in what we are going to become than in what we have been.

Little things come daily, hourly, within our reach, and they are not less calculated to set forward our growth in holiness, than are the greater occasions which occur but rarely. Moreover, fidelity in trifles, and an earnest seeking to please God in little matters, is a test of real devotion and love. Let your aim be to please our dear Lord perfectly in little things, and to attain a spirit of childlike simplicity and dependence. In proportion as self-love and self-confidence are weakened, and our will bowed to that of God, so will hindrances disappear, the internal troubles and contests which harassed the soul vanish, and it will be filled with peace and tranquility.
Jean Nicolas Grou
And Moses said to the people, “Fear not, stand firm, and see the salvation of the LORD, which he will work for you today.”
Exodus 14:13
The English Standard Version
Witnessing for Christ is not something we turn on and off, like a TV set. Every believer is a witness at all times–either a good one or a bad one.

No matter how good your life is at any moment, there’s always something bad you need to work on. And no matter how bad your life may appear to be, there is always something to be grateful for. Behind every public success, you will find some kind of private pain. There is no such thing as a painless life. But pain can build and deepen your character if you respond in the right way.
Rick Warren
“And don’t be afraid of the people, for I, the Lord, will be with you and see you through.”
Jeremiah 1:8
The Living Bible
It is a good and safe rule to sojourn in every place as if you meant to spend your life there, never omitting an opportunity of doing a kindness, or speaking a true word, or making a friend.
John Ruskin

What air is to a man’s physical nature, the Holy Spirit is to man’s spiritual nature. Without air there is death in our bodies; without the Holy Spirit there is death in our souls.
Abraham Kuyper
The Lord will fulfil his purpose for me; your steadfast love, O Lord, endures for ever. Do not forsake the work of your hands.
Psalm 138:8
The New Revised Standard Version
Let the day have a blessed baptism by giving your first waking hours and thoughts into the bosom of God. The first hour of the morning is the rudder of the day.

The happy life is to rejoice in God and for God.
Augustine
By your patience possess your souls.
Luke 21:19
The New King James Version
Sometimes you change people’s lives just by saying “good morning.” I always say to myself, “I’ll never see this person again on the elevator, on the stairwell, in the grocery store. This is the only chance, the two of us.”

People like to say that time heals all wounds, and I think that is very nice but not entirely true: time does heal most things to some extent, and love gently tends the parts that still hurt.
Anne Lamott
The one who is victorious I will make a pillar in the temple of my God.
Revelation 3:12
The New International Version
If being a team player requires doing what is wrong, you’re on the wrong team.
