Quote

Just trust God. God will provide. Even tomorrow what will happen we don’t know. Believe there is God. God doesn’t always give happy feelings. But in the end we are looking to eternal life. Cooperate and trust and believe. Trust the community and trust God and trust yourself and go day by day and it will take you to the end. You are thinking too much. We don’t know what the future will be.

“What a head you have! My poor child, it would be better for you to be obedient than to be guided by your own poor judgment. There is no common sense in such a way.”
