Wisdom from a Wise One

I thought you might appreciate these quotes - from The Thought of God, by Maurice Roberts: The mere thought of God should end all anxiety. Then why does it not? B/c I fail to carry thought to its proper conclusion. If God be God, then no insoluble problems exist. And if God be MY God, then no problem of mine is w/o its appropriate solution. There is in God just exactly what is needed to solve every riddle of life. Though sometimes, the answer is beyond the grave. It is not outward circumstances that can drag us down, but our own reaction of despair to them, when we fail to perceive the hidden hand of God in all events. There is no situation in life too hard for God. But many situations look too hard at first sight. These are ordained to give us room to wait on God for his deliverance. There is a blessing attached to waiting patiently for God in evil days. They shall not be ashamed who wait for God. [as posted by Lynne Murphy when i was really down.]
