Quotes about Trust

And whatsoever thou art not enabled to understand, that commit without anxiety to Almighty God. God deceiveth thee not; he is deceived who believeth too much in himself.

Human reason is weak and may be deceived; but true faith cannot be deceived.

Behold, beloved Father, I am in Your hands. I bow myself under Your correcting chastisement. Strike my back and my neck, that I may bend my crookedness to Your will.

Myself and all that is mine I commit to You to be corrected, for it is better to be punished here than hereafter.
