“Do not scrutinize so closely whether you are doing much or little, ill or well, so long as what you do is not sinful and that you are heartily seeking to do everything for God. Try as far as you can to do everything well, but when it is done, do not think about it. Try, rather, to think of what is to be done next. Go on simply in the Lord's way, and do not torment yourself. We ought to hate our faults, but with a quiet, calm hatred; not pettishly and anxiously.” ThinkingWayTryingWellsLittlesLongDoneHateNextLordGoes OnOughtQuietHatredFaultsCalmIllSeekingTormentDiscipleshipScrutinize Author:Saint Francis de Sales
“When I feel overwhelmed by misfortune, the greatest joy that the Lord can give me is to go to the altar, to put my forehead against it (as on the day of my ordination to the priesthood), and to feel the presence of the only reality. Not only does calm return, but my body seems to be annihilated; the only true life begins, the life of that which is intangible.” GivingFeelsDoeBodyRealitySeemsJoyLordReturnGive MeCalmMisfortunesOverwhelmedAltarsForeheadsPriesthoodIntangibleTrue LifeOrdination Author:Leonid Feodorov
“The world is not looking for more doctrinal proof of the reality of God! It is not looking for greater proof of the resurrection or better arguments about creation. The world is looking for Christians who can stand up to every crisis, fear, trouble and difficulty and remain calm and at rest in the midst of it all. The world needs to see God's children trusting wholly in their Lord.” WorldNeedsChildrenRealityChristianLordGreaterTroubleCreationArgumentDifficultyCrisisCalmProofMidstResurrection Author:David Wilkerson
“The Lord is my peace. I shall not live in anxiety. He puts me under His wing of comfort and calms my spirit within me. He takes all my anxieties on Himself and helps me to focus on Him. Yes, though I walk through a time of grave uncertainties and fierce anxieties, I will not fret - for You are my peace. Your Word and Your presence calm me now. You hold my uncertainties in the palm of Your hand. You soothe my anxious mind - You smooth my wrinkled brow. Surely serenity and trust in You shall fill me all the days of my life. And I shall keep my mind stayed on You forever.” MindHelpingHandsSpiritWalksLordForeverFocusComfortAnxietyWingsCalmGravesUncertaintyHelp MeAnxiousFierceSerenitySmoothPalmsBrowsYour Presence Book:My Journey to Contentment: A Companion Journal for Calm My Anxious Heart Source: My Journey to Contentment: A Companion Journal for Calm My Anxious Heart
