vol.3 iss.3 Thinking Out Loud

We believe in dawn, though it be dark.
We believe in God, though He be silent.
A Jewish inscription (Germany, ca. 1940)

Happiness depends, as nature shows, less on exterior things than most suppose.
William Cowper (1731-1800)

Our pleasance here is all vain glory,
This false world is but transitory.
William Dunbar (ca. 1460-ca. 1520)

All we want in Christ, we shall find in Christ. If we want little, we shall find little. If we want much, we shall find much; but if, in utter helplessness, we cast our all on Christ, He will be to us the whole treasury of God.
Henry Benjamin Whipple (1822-1901)

All should try to learn before they die what they are running from, and to, and why.
James Thurber (1894-1961)

Defer not till tomorrow to be wise,
Tomorrow’s sun to thee may never rise.
William Congreve (1670-1729)

And in His will is our peace.
Dante Alighieri (1265-1321)

God governs the world, and we have only to do our duty wisely, and leave the issue to Him.
John Jay (1745-1829)

I want to live for immortality, and I will accept no compromise.
Fyodor Dostoyevsky (1821-1881)

Jesus, my All in all Thou art,
My rest in toil, mine ease in pain;
The med’cine of my broken heart;
In war, my peace; in loss, my gain;
My smile beneath the tyrant’s frown;
In shame, my glory and my crown.
Charles Wesley (1707-1788)
