Quotation Saturday

Here's a sigh to those who love me,
And a smile to those who hate;
And, whatever sky's above me,
Here's a heart for every fate.
~George Gordon, Lord Byron, "To Thomas Moore"

FAITH

He who has faith has... an inward reservoir of courage, hope, confidence, calmness, and assuring trust that all will come out well - even though to the world it may appear to come out most badly. 

~B.C. Forbes

As your faith is strengthened you will find that there is no longer the need to have a sense of control, that things will flow as they will, and that you will flow with them, to your great delight and benefit. 

~Emmanuel

Faithless is he that says farewell when the road darkens. ~J.R.R. Tolkien

Faith is putting all your eggs in God's basket, then counting your blessings before they hatch. 

~Ramona C. Carroll

Every tomorrow has two handles. We can take hold of it by the handle of anxiety, or by the handle of faith. ~Author Unknown

PRAYER ~
 

Any concern too small to be turned into a prayer is too small to be made into a burden. 
~Corrie ten Boom
 

God has editing rights over our prayers. He will... edit them, correct them, bring them in line with His will and then hand them back to us to be resubmitted.
~Stephen Crotts
 

Some people think that prayer just means asking for things, and if they fail to receive exactly what they asked for, they think the whole thing is a fraud.
~Gerald Vann

We must move from asking God to take care of the things that are breaking our hearts, to praying about the things that are breaking His heart.
~Margaret Gibb

“I am ending this week in FAITH and PRAYER. I will begin this week with hope and love. Sounds like a good plan to me.”
