“Every day contains small, yet significant, battles for the Lord. Fix your eyes on the finish line, persevere, give your all to the Master, and know that He who has called you will be faithful to do the work (1 Thess. 5:24). When we stand before the Lord one day, we will not regret any sacrifice we have made for Him. We will only wish we had given Him more!”
― Sarah Mally, Before You Meet Prince Charming: A Guide to Radiant Purity

“When a man turns a blessing from his door, it falls to them as take it in.”
― George Eliot, Silas Marner

“All this he saw, for one moment breathless and intense, vivid on the morning sky; and still, as he looked, he lived; and still, as he lived, he wondered. 'Rat!' he found breath to whisper, shaking. 'Are you afraid?' 'Afraid?' murmured the Rat, his eyes shining with unutterable love. 'Afraid! Of HIM? O, never, never! And yet—and yet—O, Mole, I am afraid!' Then the two animals, crouching to the earth, bowed their heads and did worship.”
― Kenneth Grahame, The Wind in the Willows

“As agents of God's common grace, we are called to help sustain and renew his creation, to uphold the created institutions of family and society, to pursue science and scholarship, to create works of art and beauty, and to heal and help those suffering from the results of the Fall.”
