“What on earth shall I do”

“God is good to all of us. He knows what we need better than we do. And just because he thinks it is better not to give you what you want right now doesn't mean he isn't answering you. You shall have what you ask for but not until the right time comes." - Grandmamma”

“Because I would rather be with my grandfather on Alp than anywhere on earth.”

“I'll always say my prayers... and if God doesn't answer them at once I shall know it's because He's planning something better for me.”

“Heidi loudly wailed, "Oh I want to go home. What the poor snowhopper will do without me? Grandmother is waiting for me everyday. Poor Thistlefinch gets blows if Peter gets no cheese, and I must see the sun again when he says good-night to the mountains. How the eagle would screech if he saw all the people here in Frankfurt.”

“I'm making the bed now, oh, do come up and bring a sheet grandfather, for every bed must have a sheet.”

“We must never forget to pray, and to ask God to remember us when He is arranging things, so that we too may feel safe and have no anxiety about what is going to happen.”
