Here you will find a collection of my favorite quotes. I will try to post one or two everyday. Sometimes I will expand on it, other times I'll just post. But, feel free to comment either way! Enjoy. (:

Relying on God has to begin all over again everyday,
as if nothing had yet been done.
C. S. Lewis
How humbling to realize that we can not do anything on our own but, how wondrously sweet to know that God can do everything.

Our anxiety does not empty tomorrow of its sorrow, but only empties today of its strength. ~ Charles Spurgeon
"Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? And which of you by being anxious can add a single hour to his span of life?And why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin, yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is alive and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? Therefore do not be anxious, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear?' For the Gentiles seek after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them all. But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.
"Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.
~ Matthew 6:25-34

I pray because I can't help myself. I pray because I'm helpless. I pray because the need flows out of me all the time- waking and sleeping. It doesn't change God- it changes me. ~ C.S. Lewis

I have held many things in my
hands, and I have lost them all; but whatever I have placed in God's

Today, I am giving you two quotes. The second quote is from my Spiritual Warfare class and is something we all need to remember.
"I pray because I can't help myself. I pray because I'm helpless. I pray because the need flows out of me all the time- waking and sleeping. It doesn't change God- it changes me."
— C.S. Lewis
Spiritual warfare is a lifestyle; it is living and speaking Christ at ALL times so He is glorified at ALL times and an already defeated Satan is threatened.

Here are several quotes that quite often comfort me in times of affliction:
“There is no pit so deep, that God's love is not deeper still.” ~ Corrie Ten Boom
“If God has shown us bad times ahead, it's enough for me that He knows about them. That's why He sometimes shows us things, you know - to tell us that this too is in His hands.”~ Corrie Ten Boom
“Our anxiety does not empty tomorrow of its sorrow, but only empties today of its strength” ~ Charles Spurgeon
“Trials teach us what we are; they dig up the soil, and let us see what we are made of; they just turn up some of the ill weeds on to the surface.” ~ Charles Spurgeon
Some people feel guilty about their anxieties and regard them as a defect of their faith, but they are afflictions not sins. Like all afflictions, they are, if we can so take them, our share in the passion of Christ. ~ C.S. Lewis
Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness. And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing. ~ James 1: 2-4
“God allows us to experience the low points of life in order to teach us lessons that we could learn in no other way.”~ C.S. Lewis
“When we lose one blessing, another is often most unexpectedly given in its place.”~ C.S. Lewis
1 Peter 1
