If we say we trust in Him, but in reality do not, then God, taking us at our word, lets us see that we do not really confide in Him, and hence failure arises.

Intimate knowledge of God is possible if we habitually search His Holy Scriptures & translate what we find into obedience.

God is pleased continually to vary His mode of dealing with us, in order that we may not be tempted to trust in donors, or in circumstances, but in Him alone, and to keep our eye fixed upon Him.

The province of faith begins where probabilities cease and sight and sense fail.

A brother with small earnings may ask,''Should I also give? My earning are already so small that my family can barely make ends meet.'' My reply is, ''Have you ever considered that the very reason your earnings remain so small may be because you spend everything on yourself? If God gave you more, you would only use it to increase your own comfort instead of looking to see who is sick or who has no work at all that you might help them.

Where faith begins, anxiety ends; where anxiety begins, faith end.

Only a life of prayer and meditation will render a vessel ready for the Master's use.
