your neighbor. Love enough to move you to be useful and helpful to
others. Faith enough to make real the things of God. Hope enough to
remove all anxious fears concerning the future.

necessary. To one without faith, no explanation is possible. -Thomas

A person will worship something, have no
doubt about that. We may think our tribute is paid in secret in the
dark recesses of our hearts, but it will out. That which dominates our
imaginations and our thoughts will determine our lives, and our
character. Therefore, it behooves us to be careful what we worship, for
what we are worshipping we are becoming. -Ralph Waldo Emerson
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
Faith is the art of holding on to things
your reason once accepted, despite your changing moods. -C.S. Lewis
