Oh, how great is the goodness of God, greater than we can understand. There are moments and there are mysteries of the divine mercy over which the heavens are astounded. Let our judgment of souls cease, for God's mercy upon them is extraordinary.
I have faith in Faith, I have reverence for all true Reverence.
Never have I thought that I was the happy possessor of a "talent;" my sole concern has been to save myself by work and faith.
Faith is a knowledge within the heart, beyond the reach of proof.
Faith is not like bottled water but like rain. Its destiny is not just to be kept and held but to make something visible grow.
There is nothing more perplexing in life than to know at what point you should surrender your intellect to your faith.
That we have but little faith is not sad, but that we have little faithfulness. By faithfulness faith is earned.
Faith is precisely the paradox that the single individual as the single individual is higher than the universal, is justified before it, not as inferior to it but superior - yet in such a way, please note, that it is the single individual who, after being subordinate as the single individual to the universal, now by means of the universal becomes the single individual who as the single individual is superior, that the single individual as the single individual stands in an absolute relation to the absolute.
Realize that true happiness lies within you.
Application of your faith will change your life
The mason asks but a narrow shelf to spring his brick from; man requires only an infinitely narrower one to spring his arch of faith from.
Fear of failure and fear of the unknown are always defeated by faith. Having faith in yourself, in the process of change, and in the new direction that change sets will reveal your own inner core of steel.
A drop of hope can create an ocean, but a bucket of faith can create an entire world.
Is it not an amazing thing, that men shall attempt to investigate the mystery of the redemption, when, at the same time that it is propounded to us as an article of faith solely, we are told that "the very angels have desired to pry into it in vain"?
The need for some venture of faith still remains; one must stake one's life upon something.
God loves each of us as if there were only one of us.
We often forget that the author of our faith must be the finisher of it also.
I refuse to accept the view that mankind is so tragically bound to the starless midnight of racism and war that the bright daybreak of peace and brotherhood can never become a reality. . . I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word.
The life of faith is not a life of mounting up with wings, but a life of walking and not fainting.
Great faith doesn't come out of great effort, but out of great surrender.
