Faith does not depend on feelings. It is not feelings but the will that forms the character, especially the Christian character. Often we must continue on the way simply through strict obedience, quite soberly, while at other times the Lord will overwhelm us with floods of joy. He does both in order to teach us. The peace of God is not a feeling. It is the relationship of the soul to God, and an expression of the fact that a reborn person is a child of God.

Yesterday's quote

For Jesus alone!
So may I live
with all I have
and nothing less.
I’ll give him all,
my Lord and King –
so will my heart
find happiness.
