Faith Quotes
-
In order to trust God, we must always view our adverse circumstances through the eyes of faith, not of sense. And just as the faith of salvation comes through hearing the message of the gospel (Romans 10:17), so the faith to trust God in adversity comes through the Word of God alone. It is only in the Scriptures that we find an adequate view of God's relationship to and involvement in our painful circumstances. It is only from the Scriptures, applied to our hearts by the Holy Spirit, that we receive the grace to trust God in adversity.

And send me songless to the sullen grave.

How laudable it is for a prince to keep good faith and live with integrity, and not with astuteness, every one knows.

Niccolò di Bernardo dei Machiavelli
-

Gabrielle Giffords

The intelligible forms of ancient poets,The fair humanities of old religion,The power, the beauty, and the majestyThat had their haunts in dale or piny mountain,Or forest by slow stream, or pebbly spring,Or chasms and watery depths, - all these have vanished;They live no longer in the faith of reason.
Friedrich Schiller
