The Christian walk of faith is not without trials. Christians believe that God allows difficulties in the life of a believer for many purposes. As these great quotes about trusting God illustrate, Christians believe that they can walk with trust in God in spite of circumstances.

And as each of these quotes teaches, trusting God reaps many rewards both in this life and the life to come for the Christian believer. I hope you will be encouraged by these quotes in your walk with God.

For 20+ years, I’ve been writing about following Jesus Christ and making choices based on what is true, beautiful, and eternal. Through purposeful living, self-employment, and homeschooling, our family has learned that freedom comes from a commitment to examine all of life and think for yourself. 

I hope you will join me here where we discuss all of life each day.

A Christian Nation

"The real object of the first amendment was not to countenance, much less to advance, Mahometanism, or Judaism, or infidelity, by prostrating Christianity; but to exclude all rivalry among christian sects, and to prevent any national ecclesiastical establishment, which should give to a hierarchy the exclusive patronage of the national government."

Joseph Story (Associate Justice of the Supreme Court), Commentaries on the Constitution of the United States (1833), § 1871.

countenance: To favor; to encourage by opinion or words; To encourage; to appear in defense (Websters Dictionary 1828)
