11. We talk about God's remembering us, as if it were a special effort. But if we could only know how truly we belong to God, it would be different. God's remembrance of us is the natural claiming of our life by Him as true part of His own.
12. "The God who gave us life, gave us liberty at the same time."
13. "You must believe that God is separate from the world and that some of the things we see in it are contrary to His will."
14. "When you come to knowing God, the initiative lies on His side. If He does not show Himself, nothing you can do will enable you to find Him. And, in fact, He shows much more of Himself to some people than to others---not because He has favourites, but because it is impossible for Him to show Himself to a man whose whole mind and character are in the wrong condition. Just as sunlight, though it has no favourites, cannot be reflected in a dusty mirror as clearly as in a clean one."
15. "As Caesar demands of us the stamp of his likeness, so does God also. And as we render money to the one, so we give our souls to the other,----our souls enlightened and sealed with the light of His countenance."

17. "I never was without some religious principles. I never doubted, for instance, the existence of the Deity; that He made the world, and governed it by His Providence; that the most acceptable service of God was the doing good to man; that our souls are immortal; and that all crime will be punished, and virtue rewarded, either here or hereafter."
18. "God will mend a broken heart if you give Him all the pieces." Myrtie Stanton
19. "A parboiled conscience is not right, soft in one part and hard in another. The Spirit of God is uniform it its work."
20. "God loves to effect His greatest works by means tending under ordinary circumstances to produce the very opposite of what is to be done."
