Quote by Helen Nearing

“In Maie get a weede hooke, a crotch and a glove, And weed out such weedes as the corne doth not love. Slack never thy weeding, for dearth nor for cheape, The corne shall reward it er ever ye reape. [Thomas Tusser, ‘Five hundred points of husbandry: directing what corn, grass, is proper to be sown: what trees to be planted: how land is to be improved: with with whatever is fit to be done for the benefit of the farmer in every month of the year’ (1557).]”

“A former secretary of defense had once talked about how there were known knowns—the things we know that we know, like the sky is blue and the sun rises in the east. Then there were known unknowns, like what is the cure for cancer? But there were also unknown unknowns, and these were the most dangerous: things we don’t know we don’t know. The things that came out of the blue. The things you didn’t even know you had to prepare for.”

“I believe in God. I talk to Him in my earnest prayers, sharing my personal thoughts and desires. I hear Him when I study and ponder His words in the scriptures. I recognize Him through the calm, peaceful, warm influence of the Holy Spirit. I see His hand in my life as I acknowledge answers to my prayers and the receiving of blessings, tender mercies, and miracles. I experience God’s hand in my life, and so I believe in Him.”

“You pray hard for the people you love. You pray for their health and safety. For their upright joy and happiness. You pray for God to guide their steps, answer their prayers, and teach them what is virtuous and true. You pray for kind, caring, honorable people to come into their lives as friends, helpers, colleagues, and examples. You pray for their dreams and wishes to come true. When you love people, you pray hard for them, that every good thing will be theirs, blessed by God’s tender mercies and gracious miracles.”
