“Take risks! That is really what life is about. We must pursue our own happiness. Nobody has ever lived our lives; ther are no guidelines. Trust your instincts. Accept nothing but the best. But then also look for it carefully. Don't allow it to slip between your fingers. Sometimes, good things come to us in a such a quiet fashion. And nothing comes complete. It is what we make of whatever we encounter that determines the outcome. What we choose to see, what we choose to save. And what we choose to remember.

“I am learning that mature faith, which encompasses both simple faith and fidelity, works the opposite of paranoia. It reassembles all the events of life around trust in a loving God. When good things happen, I accept them as gifts from God, worthy of thanksgiving. When bad things happen, I do not take them as necessarily sent by God -- I see evidence in the Bible to the contrary -- and I find in them no reason to divorce God. Rather, I trust that God can use even those bad things for my benefit.” ReasonUseHappensSimpleAcceptingEventsBenefitsEvidenceOppositesGood ThingsWorthyDivorceContraryThings HappenNo ReasonBad ThingsMatureFidelityLoving GodParanoiaGift From GodBad Things HappenSimple FaithWhen Bad Things Happen Book:Reaching for the Invisible God Study Guide Source: Reaching for the Invisible God Study Guide
