Quote of the Day

"In times of danger our heart is so prone to sinking fears. The sin of unbelief is the real cause for most distracting and afflictive fears. If men would dig to the root of their fears, they would certainly find unbelief there. The less faith, the more fear. All the skill in the world can never cure us of the disease of fear, until God cures us of our unbelief...If faith is weakened in the soul, and if invisibles seem uncertain, and visible the only realities, no wonder we are so scared and frightened when these visible and sensible comforts are endangered. A men is afraid to stand his ground if he is not thoroughly persuaded the ground he stands on is firm. No wonder that men tremble when it seems they feel the ground shake and reel under them! But the divine promises give us refuge from our fears."
