A gracious soul may look through the darkest cloud and see God smiling on him.

Where truth goes, I will go, and where truth is I will be, and nothing but death shall divide me and the truth.

Consider that spiritual safety comes through spiritual unity. Christians united together are difficult to separate, difficult to break, difficult to pick off and destroy. It is when you isolate yourself by disrupting or denying unity that you are most at risk.

Saints spring and thrive most internally, when they are most externally afflicted. Afflictions are the mother of virtue.

God is as just as he is merciful.

Grace and glory differ very little; the one is the seed, the other is the flower; grace is glory militant, glory is grace triumphant.

The world and you must part, or Christ and you will never meet.
