Faith is a living, daring, confidence in God's grace.

Be thou comforted, little dog, Thou too in Resurrection shall have a little golden tail.

The Lord commonly gives riches to foolish people, to whom he gives nothing else.

Is it not a thing most abominable, that God who feeds so many mouths, should be held in such low esteem by me, that I will not trust him to feed me? Yea, that a guilder, thirty-eight cents, should be valued more highly than God, who pours out his treasures everywhere in rich profusion. For the world is full of God and his works. He is everywhere present with his gifts, and yet we will not trust in him, nor accept his visitation.

Now if I believe in God's Son and remember that He became man, all creatures will appear a hundred times more beautiful to me than before. Then I will properly appreciate the sun, the moon, the stars, trees, apples, as I reflect that he is Lord over all things. ...God writes the Gospel, not in the Bible alone, but also on trees, and in the flowers and clouds and stars.

Our loving God wills that we eat, drink and be merry.

Christ desires nothing more of us than that we speak of him.
