“A few songs with Him might change the way you sing. Forever.” 
― Max Lucado

“I learned that the search for God is a Dark Night, that Faith is a Dark Night. And that’s hardly a surprise really, because for us each day is a dark night. None of us knows what might happen even the next minute, and yet still we go forward. Because we trust. Because we have Faith.” 
― Paulo Coelho

“Man is manifestly not the measure of all things. This universe is shot through with mystery. The very fact of its being, and of our own, is a mystery absolute, and the only miracle worthy of the name.” 
― Sam Harris

“To have faith requires courage, the ability to take a risk, the readiness even to accept pain and disappointment. Whoever insists on safety and security as primary conditions of life cannot have faith; whoever shuts himself off in a system of defense, where distance and possession are his means of security, makes himself a prisoner. To be loved, and to love, need courage, the courage to judge certain values as of ultimate concern – and to take the jump and to stake everything on these values.” 
― Erich Fromm

“I believe in my mask-- The man I made up is me I believe in my dance-- And my destiny” 
― Sam Shepard

“The only thing that stands between a person and what they want in life is the will to try it and the faith to believe it is possible.” 
― Rich DeVos

“History dressed up in the glow of love’s kiss turned grief into beauty.” 
― Aberjhani

“We must cease striving and trust God to provide what He thinks is best and in whatever time He chooses to make it available. But this kind of trusting doesn't come naturally. It's a spiritual crisis of the will in which we must choose to exercise faith.” 
― Charles R. Swindoll
