“Do not we rest in our day too much on the arm of flesh? Cannot the same wonders be done now as of old? Do not the eyes of the Lord still run to and fro throughout the whole earth to show Himself strong on behalf of those who put their trust in Him? Oh, that God would give me more practical faith in Him! Where is now the Lord God of Elijah? He is waiting for Elijah to call on Him.” GivingStillsDoneWholeShowsEyeRunningEarthStrongWaitingWonderLordToo MuchArmsGive MeFleshPracticalsBehalfElijahRevival PrayerGod PrayerLord God Author:James Gilmour

“Faith is the backbone of the social and the foundation of the commercial fabric; remove faith between man and man, and society and commerce fall to pieces. There is not a happy home on earth but stands on faith; our heads are pillowed on it, we sleep at night in its arms with greater security for the safety of our lives, peace, and prosperity than bolts and bars can give.” MenGivingHomeEarthNightFaithFallSocialSleepGreaterPiecesOur LivesSecurityArmsSafetyFoundationProsperityBarsRemoveCommerceFabricBoltsBackboneHappy Home Author:Thomas Guthrie
“And also to the alien, who is not of Thy people Israel, but comes from a distant land on account of Thy fame; for hearing of Thy great name and Thy strong hand, and Thine outstretched arm, he comes to this house to pray... do Thou listen in the heavens, the place where Thou dwellest, and perform all that the alien begs of Thee, so that all the peoples of the earth may know Thy name, to fear Thee like Thine own people Israel, and to know that Thy name is proclaimed over this house that I have built.” PeopleKnowsMayHandsEarthHouseNamesStrongHeavenLandArmsPrayingFameBuiltAccountsIsraelHearingAliensTheeStrong Hands Author:Solomon
“Science has an uncomfortable way of pushing human beings from center stage. In our prescientific stories, humans began as the focal point of Nature, living on an Earth that was the center of the universe. As the origins of the Earth and of mankind were investigated more carefully, it became clear that Nature had other interests beyond people, and the Earth was less central than previously hoped. Humankind was just one branch of the great family of life, and the Earth is a smallish planet orbiting an unexceptional sun quite far out on one arm of a run-of-the-mill spiral galaxy.” PeopleWayHumansStoriesRunningEarthUniverseInterestHuman BeingsSunClearMankindStagePlanetsArmsUncomfortableBranchesJust OnePushingHumankindGalaxyLiving OnMillsSpiralsCenter Of The UniverseGreat FamilyFocal PointCenter Stage Author:Seth Lloyd
