“Men who cannot believe in the mystery of our Saviour's redemption can believe that spirits from the dead have visited them in a stranger's parlour, because they see a table shake and do not know how it is shaken; because they hear a rapping on a board, and cannot see the instrument that raps it; because they are touched in the dark, and do not know the hand that touches them.” KnowsMenBelieveHandsSpiritDarkKnow HowMysteryTablesInstrumentsStrangerRapRedemptionBoardsShakesTouchedSaviour Book:The New Zealander Source: The New Zealander
“[The sea] is the healer and the reviver, it cleanses the cavities of self-disgust and melancholy, of sloth and negation with the salt solution of life. It cures the lethargies of flesh and spirit with the slap and shake of elemental force. It cradles and comforts. Give it trust and it holds you secure; fight it and it kills.” GivingSelfSpiritFightingForceSeaComfortOceanSolutionsFleshCuresSecureShakesMelancholySaltDisgustingCradleSlapHealerSlothElementalsNegationLethargy Author:Marya Mannes
“We have a friend and protector, from whom, if we do not ourselves depart from Him, nor power nor spirit can separate us. In His strength let us proceed on our journey, through the storms, and troubles, and dangers of the world. However they may rage and swell, though the mountains shake at the tempests, our rock will not be moved: we have one friend who will never forsake us; one refuge, where we may rest in peace and stand in our lot at the end of the days. That same is He who liveth, and was dead; who is alive forevermore; and hath the keys of hell and of death.” IfsWorldMayEndsGodSpiritHellAliveTroubleJourneyRocksDangerKeysMountainMovedStormRageShakesRefugeTempestForsakeProtectorRest In PeaceOne Friend Author:Reginald Heber
