Helen Keller quotes

Never bend your head. Always hold it high. Look the world right in the eye.

Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved.

No pessimist ever discovered the secret of the stars, or sailed to an uncharted land, or opened a new doorway for the human spirit.

Faith is the strength by which a shattered world shall emerge into the light.

We could never learn to be brave and patient if there were only joy in the world.

We can do anything we want to do if we stick to it long enough.

Faithful to all, God encourages us to grow proud and tall, and to show our faith in our words, and in our actions.

Estella Eliot, Positively Christian

We must come to good works by faith, and not to faith by good works.   William Gurnall

Faith is powerful spiritual dynamic, and it is something God responds to and  blesses.  Joyce Meyers, from The Power of Simple Prayer: How to Talk with God about Everything

Lord, make me an instrument of Your peace. . . . . . . .where there is doubt, faith;  

St. Francis of Assisi, from the Peace Prayer

God is a good choice to lean on. He has a proven record of faithfulness to those who commit their lives to Him.
