IV) If, like Jacob, you trust God in little things, He may answer you by great things. - John MacDuff We are only asking yon to give to Christ that which you give to others, to transfer the old emotions, the blessed emotions, the exercise of which makes gladness in the life here below, to transfer them to Him, and to rest safe in the Lord.

Earth I no longer see, Yet trustfully my spirit looks to thee. - Alice Neal (pseudonym of Emily Bradley Neal Haven) (Emily Bradley) Let not the titles of consanguinity betray you into a prejudicial trust; no blood being apter to raise a fever, or cause a consumption sooner in your poor estate, than that which is nearest your own. - Francis Osborne (Osborn) The ordinary saying is, Count money after your father; so the same prudence adviseth to measure the ends of all counsels, though uttered by never so intimate a friend. - Francis Osborne (Osborn) Who has passed by the fates of disillusion has died twice. - Ouida (pseudonym of Marie Louise de la Ramee) If thou couldst trust, poor soul!
