“God's love is meteoric, his loyalty astronomic, His purpose titanic, his verdicts oceanic. Yet in his largeness nothing gets lost; Not a man, not a mouse, slips through the cracks.”

“And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.”

“Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.”

“What shall it profit a man to gain the whole world if he lost his soul?”

“In his mind a man plans his course, but the Lord directs his steps.”

“The Lord will fulfill his purpose for me; your love, O Lord, endures forever - do not abandon the works of your hands.”

“It is He who makes the lightning flash upon you, inspiring you with fear and hope, and gathers up the heavy clouds. The thunder sounds His praises, and the angels, too, in awe of him. He hurls his thunderbolts at whom He pleases. Yet the unbelievers wrangle about God.”
