God demands not that I be successful, but that I be faithful.
Be faithful in the little things.
Be not afraid. God loves you & wants us to love one another as He loves us. As miserable, weak and sinful as we are, He loves us with an infinitely faithful love.
Be faithful in the little things, for in them our strength lies. To the good God nothing is little, because He is so great and we are so small.
I am not called to be successful, I am called to be faithful.
God doesn't ask that we succeed in everything, but that we are faithful. However beautiful our work may be, let us not become attached to it. Always remain prepared to give it up, without losing your peace.
We are not here to be successful, we are here to be FAITHFUL
We are called upon not to be successful, but to be faithful,
God does not demand that I be succesful. God demands that I be faithful. When facing God, results are not important. Faithfulness is what is important.
Little things are indeed little, but to be faithful in little things is a great thing.
People are unreasonable, illogical, and self-centered. Love them anyway.
We, the unwilling,led by the unknowing,are doing the impossible for the ungrateful. We have done so much,for so long,with so little,we are now qualified to do anything with nothing.
Much more is accomplished by a single word of the Our Father said, now and then, from our heart, than by the whole prayer repeated many times in haste and without attention.
One must really have suffered oneself to help others.
