“I do honestly and sincerely believe in the necessity or desirability of Hindu-Muslim unity. I am also fully prepared to trust the Muslim leaders.

I hope your learned mind and wise head will find some way out of this difficulty.”

“We have real difficulty here because everyone thinks of changing the world, but where, oh where, are those who think of changing themselves?

When those trials are not consequences of your disobedience, they are evidence that the Lord feels you are prepared to grow more.

“When God issues a call to us, it is always a holy call. The vocation of dying is a sacred vocation. To understand that is one of the most important lessons a Christian can ever learn.

“I’ve learned that possibly the greatest detractor from high performance is fear: fear that you are not prepared, fear that you are in over your head, fear that you are not worthy, and ultimately, fear of failure. If you can eliminate that fear—not through arrogance or just wishing difficulties away, but through hard work and preparation—you will put yourself in an incredibly powerful position to take on the challenges you face.”
