I'm convinced that the man who has learned to meditate upon the Lord will be able to run on his feet and walk in his spirit. Although he may be hurried by his vocation that's not the issue. The issue is how fast his spirit is going. To slow it down takes a period of time.

Hope founded upon a human being a man-made philosophy or any institution is always misplaced… because these things are unreliable and fleeting.
