Kindle Notes & Highlights
“I would betray the king before I would betray my God, no matter the cost.” ‘My faith is stronger than my fears.’
“I was taught that we don’t perform the rites to be rewarded, as if obedience is a bargaining chip. They are helpful reminders for when our faith wears thin. And I have seen His promises with your people fulfilled, even in times of trouble. So I have faith He will keep His promises in His timing and His ways.”
Perhaps Ehyen has placed you here for such a time as this, so that you do not need to do anything but have faith, and through you He will save the lives of many.”
Maybe Ehyen had never forgotten me. Even when I was trying to run away, He was working out the pieces to perfectly fit into His plan. He masterfully twisted the evil deeds of men to His will. And then He gave me the faith, the courage, to risk everything and do what needed to be done.
Faith is having courage, even when everything seems impossible, isn’t it? Even when wishes don’t come true. Even when pain is the path to salvation. “In darkness we gain a deeper understanding of light’s brilliance. And I found the courage to open my eyes, to see that I was never alone in the dark.” If we are faithless, He remains faithful.
