It is possible even to hurry patiently, mindfully, moving fast because you have chosen to.”

God does not heed, He goes on stretching till His purpose is in sight, then He lets fly. Trust yourself in God's hands. Maintain your relationship to Jesus Christ by the patience of faith. 'Though He slay me, yet will I trust in Him.”

We will have discovered peace when we have been tried and come through the trial of temptation.”
