Quotes

Teach us, O Lord, the disciplines of patience, for to wait is often
harder than to work.

Peter Marshall


Cure yourself of the condition of bothering about how you look to other
people. Be concerned only. . .with the idea God has of you.

Miguel de Unamuno

Nothing worth doing is completed in our lifetime,
Therefore, we are saved by hope.
Nothing true or beautiful or good makes complete sense in any immediate
context of history;
Therefore, we are saved by faith.
Nothing we do, however virtuous, can be accomplished alone.
Therefore, we are saved by love.
No virtuous act is quite a virtuous from the standpoint of our friend
or foe as from our own;
Therefore, we are saved by the final form of love which is forgiveness.

Reinhold Niebuhr

What you are as a single person, you will be as a married person, only
to a greater degree. Any negative character trait will be intensified
in a marriage relationship, because you will feel free to let your guard
down - - that person has committed himself to you and you no longer
have to worry about scaring him off.

Josh McDowell


No husband is so undying and everlasting a husband as Christ is; death
separates all other relations, but the soul's union with Christ is not
dissolved in the grave. Indeed, the day of a believer's death is his
marriage day, the day of his fullest enjoyment of Christ. No husband can
say to his wife, what Christ says to the believer, "I will never leave
you, nor forsake you"

John Flavel

It's time to stop being gripped by fear and to start gripping God.
