Faith is not in itself a meritorious act; the merit is in the One to Whom it is directed.

God never hurries. There are no deadlines against which he must work. Only to know this is to quiet our spirits and relax our nerves.

In trying to count our many blessings the difficulty is not to find things to count, but to find time to enumerate them all.

The goodness of God is infinitely more wonderful than we will ever be able to comprehend.
