Trust is faith that has become absolute, approved, and accomplished. When all is said and done, there is a sort of risk in faith and its exercise. But trust is firm belief; it is faith in full bloom. Trust is a conscious act, a fact of which we are aware.
– EM Bounds –
You find no difficulty in trusting the Lord with the management of the universe and all the outward creation, and can your case be any more difficult than these, that you need to be anxious about His management of it?
– Hannah Whitall Smith –
Faith is a living and unshakable confidence. A belief in God so assured that a man would die a thousand deaths for its sake.
– Martin Luther –
God is not a deceiver, that He should offer to support us, and then, when we lean upon Him, should slip away from us.
– Augustine –
If we will only surrender ourselves utterly to the Lord, and will trust Him perfectly, we shall find our souls “mounting up with wings as eagles” to the “heavenly places” in Christ Jesus, where earthly annoyances or sorrows have no power to disturb us.
– Hannah Whitall Smith –
I have held many things in my hands, and I have lost them all; but whatever I have placed in God’s hands, that, I still possess.
– Corrie ten Boom –
We would worry less if we praised more. Thanksgiving is the enemy of discontent and dissatisfaction.
– Harry Ironside –
If the Bible were not true the sooner we found it out and threw it aside the better … but if it is true, the sooner we live up to it and act up to it the better. If any of you were offered a bank of England note, whether for five pounds or five thousand pounds, you would never doubt the value of it, you would take the words printed on it as sure. And are not the words printed in this book [the Bible] as sure?
– Hudson Taylor –
God owns all the silver and the gold in the world and all the cattle on a thousand hills, we need not be vegetarians.
