Inflexible in faith, invincible in arms.

To every soul that knows how to pray, to every soul that by faith comes to Jesus, the true mercy seat, divine sovereignty wears no dark and terrible aspect but is full of love.

The substance of faith is a hope in the unseen.

Love, hope, fear, faith - these make humanity; These are its sign and note and character.

Smiles, tears, of all my life! - and, if God choose, I shall but love thee better after death.

Faith is the strength by which a shattered world shall emerge into the light.

From faith, hope, and love, the virtues of religion referring to God, there arises a double act which bears on the spiritual communion exercised between God and us; the hearing of the word and prayer.

After many years of great mercy, after tasting of the powers of the world to come, we still are so weak, so foolish; but, oh! when we get away from self to God, there all is truth and purity and holiness, and our heart finds peace, wisdom, completeness, delight, joy, victory.

From the beginning, the sensation of the marvelous presupposes faith.
