God works by contraries so that a man feels himself to be lost in the very moment when he is on the point of being saved.
Martin LutherIf I should neglect prayer but a single day, I should lose a great deal of the fire of faith.
Martin LutherFeelings come and feelings go, And feelings are deceiving; My warrant is the Word of God-- Naught else is worth believing. Though all my heart should feel condemned For want of some sweet token, There is One greater than my heart Whose Word cannot be broken. I'll trust in God's unchanging Word Till soul and body sever, For, though all things shall pass away, HIS WORD SHALL STAND FOREVER!
Martin Luther
