Whoever gives heed to instruction prospers,
and Blessed is he who trusts in the Lord.
~ Proverbs 16:20
The heart that trusts forever sings,
And feels as light as it had wings,
A well of peace within it springs,--
Come good or ill,
Whatever to-day, to-morrow brings,
It is His will.
~ I. WILLIAMS.
He will weave no longer a spotted life
of shreds and patches, but he will live
with a divine unity. He will cease from
what is base and frivolous in his life,
and be content with all places, and
with any service he can render. He
will calmly front the morrow, in the
negligence of that trust which carries
God with it, and so hath already the
whole future in the bottom of the heart.
R. W. EMERSON.
He who believes in God is not careful
for the morrow, but labors joyfully and
with a great heart. "For He giveth His
beloved, as in sleep." They must work
and watch, yet never be careful or anxious,
but commit all to Him, and live in serene
tranquility; with a quiet heart, as one
who sleeps safely and quietly.
MARTIN LUTHER.
