How is it, then, that the voice of God is not more distinctly heard by men? The answer to this question is: To be heard it must be listened for.
Désiré-Joseph Mercier

How shall we fear God unless we know that all our welfare lies in Him?
John Calvin
“Be strong, all you people of the land,’ declares the Lord, ‘and work. For I am with you,’ declares the Lord Almighty.”
Haggai 2:4
The New International Version
Prayer shouldn’t be casual or sporadic, dictated only by the needs of the moment. Prayer should be as much a part of our lives as breathing.
Billy Graham

The ordinary influence of the Spirit of God, working the grace of charity in the heart, is a more excellent blessing than any of the extraordinary gifts.
Jonathan Edwards
Do not hasten in your spirit to be angry, For anger rests in the bosom of fools.

The whole benefit of trial consists in silence, patience, rest, and resignation. In this condition divine strength is found for the hard warfare, because God Himself fights for the soul.
Miguel de Molinos
Thanks be to God for his inexpressible gift!
2 Corinthians 9:15

If someone predicts their own death and resurrection and pulls it off, I go with whatever that person says.

He has kept and folded us from ten thousand ills when we did not know it. In the midst of our security we should have perished every hour, but He sheltered us ‘from the terror by night and from the arrow that flieth by day’ —from the powers of evil that walk in darkness, and from snares of our own evil will. He has kept us even against ourselves, and saved us even from our own undoing. Let us read the traces of His hand in all our ways, in all the events, the chances, the changes of this troubled state. It is He that folds and feeds us, that makes us to go in and out, to be faint or to find pasture, to lie down by the still waters, or to walk by the way that is parched and desert.
Henry E. Manning
Keep your lives free from the love of money, and be content with what you have; for he has said, “I will never leave you or forsake you.”
Hebrews 13:5
The New Revised Standard Version
Sometimes your medicine bottle has on it, “shake well before using.” That is what God has to do with some of His people. He has to shake them well before they are ever usable.

There are two things contained in faith: the one is humbleness, the other is glory.

Strive to see God in all things without exception, and acquiesce in His will with absolute submission. Do everything for God, uniting yourself to Him by a mere upward glance, or by the overflowing of your heart towards Him. Never be in a hurry; do everything quietly and in a calm spirit. Do not lose your inward peace for anything whatsoever, even if your whole world seems upset. Commend all to God, and then lie still and be at rest in His bosom. Whatever happens, abide steadfast in a determination to cling simply to God, trusting to His eternal love for you; and if you find that you have wandered forth from this shelter, recall your heart quietly and simply. Maintain a holy simplicity of mind, and do not smother yourself with a host of cares, wishes, or longings, under any pretext.
Francis de Sales
I will direct all his ways:

Every choice we make lays a brick next to others, forming either a pathway or a wall, depending on our faithfulness to what God has asked of us.
Steve Carter
This is the day the LORD has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it.
Psalm 118:24

God can’t bless who you pretend to be. He can only bless who you really are.

The dominion of any sinful habit will fearfully estrange us from His presence. A single consenting act of inward disobedience in thought or will is enough to let fall a cloud between Him and us, and to leave our hearts cheerless and dark.
Henry E. Manning
O Lord, be gracious to us; we wait for thee. Be our arm every morning, our salvation in the time of trouble.
Isaiah 33:2
The Revised Standard Version
The life of the church is not without a resurrection, nay, it is not without many resurrections.
John Calvin

The circumstances of her life she could not alter, but she took them to the Lord, and handed them over into His management; and then she believed that He took it, and she left all the responsibility and the worry and anxiety with Him. As often as the anxieties returned she took them back; and the result was that, although the circumstances remained unchanged, her soul was kept in perfect peace in the midst of them. And the secret she found so effectual in her outward affairs, she found to be still more effectual in her inward ones, which were in truth even more utterly unmanageable. She abandoned her whole self to the Lord, with all that she was and all that she had. Believing that He took that which she had committed to Him, she ceased to fret and worry, and her life became all sunshine in the gladness of belonging to Him.
Hannah Whitall Smith
Let me hear what God the Lord will speak, for he will speak peace to his people, to his saints; but let them not turn back to folly. Surely his salvation is near to those who fear him, that glory may dwell in our land.
Psalm 85:8-9
The English Standard Version
My worth to God in public is what I am in private.
