Three Day Quote Tag--Day 3


Last day of the Three Day Quote Tag, and as usual I have more than one quote to share with you.  Actually, I went a little overboard today and included five.  I hope you don't mind.

Three Day Quote Tag--Day 2

 
Four more quotes for you today!  I know, I know.   This tag is supposed to be one quote a day. But, really, if I'm taking the time to post one, I may as well post a few more while I'm at it.  Don't ya think?
 

"No pit is so deep that He is not deeper still; with Jesus, even in our darkest moments the best remains, and the very best is yet to come.
 
~Corrie Ten Boom
 
 
I believe in the sun even when it's not shining.
I believe in love even when I don't feel it.
And I believe in God even when He is silent.

God Knows who belongs in your life and who doesn't.  Trust and let go.  Whoever is meant to be there, will still be there.

God allows us to experience the low points of life in order to teach us lessons that we could learn no other way.

Three Day Quote Tag--Day 1


Blessing Counter tagged me for the Three Day Quote Tag over at her blog, Counting Your Blessings One by One.  Thank you, Blessing!!  This tag has come at a good time for me, because I happen to be in a bit of a funk when it comes to writing, so a simple post like this is just what I need.  :D
 
The Rules:
 
Thank the person who nominated you
Nominated 3 new bloggers every day
Post a new quote every day for 3 consecutive days

 
Well.  I'm feeling rather lazy this week, so I've decided I'm not going to tag anyone specifically, but if you'd like to do this tag, please consider yourself nominated!! 
 
Without further ado, here's my quote/quotes for the day.
 
 
It is as if God were saying, "What I am is all that need matter to you, for there lie your hope and your peace.  I will do what I will do, and it will all come to light at last, but how I do it is My secret.  Trust Me, and be not afraid."
 
"Our insistence on seeing ahead is natural enough, but it is a real hindrance to our spiritual progress."
 
~A. W. Tozer, The Knowledge of the Holy

 
 God loves us the way we are, but He loves us too much to leave us that way.
