Carmichael Quotes 2

It is great to be faced with the impossible for nothing is impossible if one is meant to do it. Wisdom will be given, and strength. When the Lord leads He always strengthens. 

I think of the love of God as a great river, pouring through us even as the waters pour through a ravine at flood time. Nothing can keep this love from pouring through us, except of course our own blocking of the river. Do you sometimes feel that you have got to the end of your love for someone who refuses and repulses you? Such a thought is folly, for one cannot come to the end of what one has not got. We have no store of love at all. We are not jugs; we are riverbeds. 

Blessed is the single-hearted, for they shall enjoy much peace. If you refuse to be hurried and pressed, if you stay your soul on God, then nothing can keep you from His peace.

It is a safe thing to trust Him to fulfill the desires which He creates. 

There have been times of late when I have had to hold on to one text with all my might: "It is required in stewards that a man may be found faithful." Praise God, it does not say successful. 

Thank God, He doesn't measure out grace in teaspoons. 

Prayer is the core of the day. Take prayer out, and the day would collapse. 

The saddest thing one meets, is a nominal Christian.
