Quotes

I absolutely love reading a good quote, whether it be from a bible verse, a famous celebrity or a saint. It's truly amazing how God seems to "place" these quotes in my life during the exact time I need them. These two quotes are something that hit me hard today...I have been feeling a bit overwhelmed and anxious recently, so hearing these sort of hit the spot:

“Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen."(Hebrews 11:1-2)

"Let nothing disturb you,
Let nothing frighten you,
All things pass away:
God never changes.
Patience obtains all things.
He who has God
Finds he lacks nothing;
God alone suffices."

(St. Teresa of Avila)

I hope that everyone is having a good Sunday, anxious-less and filled with hope and excitement of what's to come...
