Faith means living with uncertainty - feeling your way through life, letting your heart guide you like a lantern in the dark.

Just handle what is in front of you now and the future will take care of itself. Otherwise, you'll spend most of your life wondering which foot you'll use to step off the curb when you're still only halfway to the corner.

A little bit of something beats a lot of nothing. Break the largest of difficult tasks into the smallest of steps and it can be done.
