Quote of the Day

"It is unbelief that talks of delays: faith knows that, properly, there can be no such thing. The only reason why the Lord seems to delay what He afterwards grants is, that the best hour is not yet come...Sometimes He will put us to the trial, whether we mean what we say. He takes His course in a way we did not expect; and then, alas! how often does the trial put us to shame! ...We have reason, however, to say, He is good and wise; for He bears with our perverseness, and in the event shows us that if He had listened to our murmurings, and taken the methods we would have prescribed to Him, we should have been ruined indeed, and that He has been all the while doing us good in spite of ourselves."
             - John Newton
