Worry ends when faith begins.
From 1 Peter 5:6-7: “Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God, so that He may exalt you in due time. Cast all your anxiety on Him, because He cares for you.”

Charles Swindoll Quote
Discouraged people don’t need critics. They hurt enough already. They need encouragement. They need a refuge–a willing, caring, available someone.
From Proverbs 25:11: “A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in a setting of silver.”
Faith’s Cornerstone
From Isaiah 30:15: “For thus said the Lord God, the Holy One of Israel: In returning and rest you shall be saved; in quietness and in trust shall be your strength.”
Father looks upon His design
His perfection draws each detail
Filling darkness with trusted light
Faith now strengthens, no longer frail
Father molds mercy’s truth to shine
His promises to be fulfilled
Sending Shepherd, care for His flock
Faith’s cornerstone, set to rebuild
Father plans enemy’s demise
His victory shall bring glory
Witnessing Teacher’s lesson plans
Faith refreshed with every story
Father pulls strings of righteousness
His forgiving love offers hope
Wiping away sin’s endless debt
Faith grips Savior’s eternal rope
Father calls out from Calvary
His boldness breathes with quiet might
Offering life through Jesus Christ
Faith’s peace, rising on heaven’s flight
From Isaiah 30:20-21: “Though the Lord may give you the bread of adversity and the water of affliction, yet your Teacher will not hide Himself any longer, but your eyes shall see your Teacher. And when you turn to the right or when you turn to the left, your ears shall hear a word behind you, saying, ‘This is the way; walk in it.'”
William Tyndale Quote
God’s goodness is the root of all goodness; and our goodness, if we have any, springs out of His goodness.

A. W. Pink Quote
Prayer is not so much an act as it is an attitude–an attitude of dependency, dependency upon God.
From Jeremiah 17:7: “Blessed are those who trust in the Lord, whose confidence is the Lord.”

Righteousness Feeds Faith
From John 4:23-24: “But the hour is coming and is now here when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father seeks such as these to worship him. God is spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.”

Charles Swindoll Quote
Who of us has not longed for a word from God, searched for a glimpse of His power, or yearned for the reassurance of His presence, only to feel that He seems absent from the moment. Yet later, we realize how very present He was all along.
From Psalm 23:1-3: “The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures; he leads me beside still waters; he restores my soul. He leads me in right paths for his name’s sake.”
Saint Augustine Quote
He who is filled with love is filled with God himself.
From Psalm 18:1-2: “I love you, O Lord, my strength. The Lord is my rock, my fortress, and my deliverer, my God, my rock in whom I take refuge, my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.”
