“Though the fig tree does not bud
and there are no grapes on the vines,
though the olive crop fails
and the fields produce no food,
though there are no sheep in the pen
and no cattle in the stalls,
yet I will rejoice in the Lord,
I will be joyful in God my Savior.”
~ Habakkuk 3:17-18 ~
“Behold, Lord, an empty vessel that needs to be filled. My Lord, fill it. I am weak in the faith, strengthen thou me. I am cold in love, warm me and make me fervent that my love may go out to my neighbor. I do not have a strong and firm faith; at times I doubt and am unable to trust thee altogether, O Lord, help me. Strengthen my faith and trust in thee. In thee I have sealed the treasurers of all I have. I am poor, thou art rich and didst come to be merciful to the poor. I am a sinner, thou art upright. With me there is an abundance of sin, in thee is the fulness of righteousness. Therefore, I will remain with thee of who I can receive but to whom I may not give. Amen.” ~ Martin Luther ~
“Nevertheless, though I am sometimes afraid:
yet put I my trust in thee.”
~ Psalms 56:3 ~
“Do not be afraid to throw yourself on the Lord!
He will not draw back and let you fall!
Put your worries aside and throw yourself on him,
he will welcome you and heal you.”
~ St. Augustine ~
“He gives light to the sun.”
~ St. Patrick ~
“You have led me through my crowded travels of the day
to my evening’s loneliness.
I wait for its meaning through the stillness of the night.”
~ Rabindranath Tagore ~
“For from him and through him and to him are all things.
To him be the glory forever! Amen.”
~ Romans 11:36 ~
