We've got to love people for what they are, and not belittle them for what they aren't.
Patience with others is Love, Patience with self is Hope, Patience with God is Faith.
Adel Bestavros
And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity
I Corinthians Ch. XIII v.13
The right to be wrong in matters of religious belief must be accorded. Otherwise we produce hypocrites instead of persons with enlightened belief that is fully their own.
If the truth be mighty and God all-powerful, his children need not fear that disaster will follow freedom of thought.
Francois de Fenelon
"Annual income twenty pounds, annual expenditure nineteen nineteen and six, result happiness. Annual income twenty pounds, annual expenditure twenty pounds ought and six, result misery."
Mr Micawber in Dicken’s David Copperfield.
“Yesterday I was clever, so I wanted to change the world. Today I am wise, so I am changing myself.”
Rumi
Most people are willing to take the Sermon on the Mount as a flag to sail under, but few will use it as a rudder by which to steer.
Oliver Wendell Holmes
Live humbly —
Walk through life without the need to elevate yourself.
Let your worth be proven in your actions, not announced by your words.
Stay teachable, knowing there is always more to understand.
Live meekly —
Carry strength, but keep it under discipline.
Do not rush to defend, dominate, or retaliate.
Choose calm over reaction, patience over force, and trust over control—just as Jesus Christ demonstrated.
Reside well —
Be intentional about where you “live” internally.
Let your mind reside in peace, not chaos; in purpose, not distraction.
Outwardly, live simply. Inwardly, be anchored.
