You must realize that it is the ordinary way of God’s dealings with us
that our ideas do not work out speedily and efficiently as we would like
them to. The reason for this is not only the loving wisdom of God, but
also the fact that our acts have to fit into a great complex pattern
that we cannot possibly understand. I have learned over the years that
Providence is always a whole lot wiser than any of us, and that there
are always not only good reasons, but the very best reasons for the
delays and blocks that often seem to us so frustrating and absurd.Speaker: Thomas MertonPosted: 26 Nov 2007 at 8:44 AMComments: None... Be the first to comment! -

I’d rather be a could-be if I cannot be an are;
because a could-be is a maybe who is reaching for a star.

for a might have-been has never been, but a has was once an are.Speaker: Milton BerlePosted: 26 Nov 2007 at 8:30 AMComments: None... Be the first to comment! -
Stick to a task 'til it sticks to you;
Beginners are many, but enders are few.
honor, power, place and praise

For out of the bend and the sweat and the smile
Will come life’s victories, after awhile.Speaker: UnknownPosted: 26 Nov 2007 at 8:27 AMComments: None... Be the first to comment!
