Faith is deliberate confidence in the character of God whose ways you may not understand at the time.

At times God puts us through the discipline of darkness to teach us to heed Him. Song birds are taught to sing in the dark, and we are put into the shadow of God's hand until we learn to hear Him...Watch where God puts you into darkness, and when you are there keep your mouth shut. Are you in the dark just now in your circumstances, or in your life with God? Then remain quiet...When you are in the dark, listen, and God will give you a very precious message for someone else when you get into the light.

Get into the habit of saying, ''Speak, Lord,'' and life will become a romance.

Prayer is the exercise of drawing on the grace of God.
