Where does your security lie? Is God your refuge, your hiding place, your stronghold, your shepherd, your counselor, your friend, your redeemer, your saviour, your guide? If He is, you don't need to search any further for security.

The God who created, names, and numbers the stars in the heavens also numbers the hairs of my head..He pays attention to very big things and to very small ones. What matters to me matters to Him, and that changes my life.

Where reasons are given, we don't need faith. Where only darkness surrounds us, we have no means for seeing except by faith.

A quiet heart is content with what God gives. It is enough. All is grace.

Remind me that not everything needs to be said, and that there are very few things that need to be said by me.

Experience has taught me that the Shepherd is far more willing to show His sheep the path than the sheep are to follow. He is endlessly merciful, patient, tender, and loving. If we, His stupid and wayward sheep, really want to be led, we will without fail be led. Of that I am sure.

In whatever God does in the course of our lives, he gives us, through the experience, some power to help others.
