Quotemeal: Oct. 9th, 1960

Sunday, October 9, 1960

"God delights to increase the faith of his children. We ought, instead of wanting no trials before victory, no exercise for patience, to be willing to take them from God's hands as a means. Trials, obstacles, difficulties, and sometimes defeats, are the very food of faith."
— George Müller
