Quote by Craig D. Lounsbrough

“There is this magical idea of sitting underneath a seemingly endless canopy of twinkling stars and wishing upon the one that is the brightest of all. Yet, do I want to wish upon the star, or do I wish to trust in the God who is massive enough to hold the galaxy that holds the star?”

“Many years later, I happened to learn about planned parenthood and birth control to guard against unwanted children. I must say, Barbara, who we now had to call Johannes, had not been exactly planned for that very moment, and as far as being wanted is concerned, I would've gladly said many times, "Oh, won't you please be so kind as to wait for just six months." Yes, many times on the flight, on the boat, on the bus, on the stage. But thousands of years ago, God assured us – it's in the Book – "For my thoughts are not your thoughts, nor your ways My ways." So if there's any planning to be done, why don't we let Him do it? Looking back now, I know that He chose the only right moment for Johannes' arrival.”

“Confidence is a word born of a deeply primal wish. And it is rendered a wish simply because it is rarely a reality. We long for it. We hope for it. We engage in a myriad number of situations hoping against all hope that we can have confidence in whatever it is that we’ve chosen to engage in. Yet, the confidence that we are most often left with is the confidence that we cannot be confident. And the single exception that I have found is the God who was confident enough in me to be all things confident for me.”

“Prayer," she said, "is not really about the prayer, whatever you've been praying for. It's about trust, trust in your faith, trust you are being heard, trust that you are not alone. Prayer is about trust more than answers. Sometimes it is the only healthy way to channel your anger. ... Anger is fear turned inside out.”
