JOHN HENRY NEWMAN

Blessing Dream Sacrifice
May He support us all the day long, till the shades lengthen, and the evening comes, and the busy world is hushed, and the fever of life is over, and our work is done! Then in His mercy may He give us a safe lodging, and a holy rest, and peace at the last.
JOHN HENRY NEWMAN

Learn to do thy part and leave the rest to Heaven.

JOHN HENRY NEWMAN

Judgment Matter Said
If we insist on being as sure as is conceivable… we must be content to creep along the ground, and never soar.
JOHN HENRY NEWMAN

Certainty Creeps Soar
