"It is as wrong to say that the church has no part in the ministry of healing as it is to say that the only thing that prevents people from being healed is their lack of faith."
- Colin Brown

"Ultimate healing and the glorification of the body are certainly among the blessings of Calvary for the believing Christian. Immediate healing is not guaranteed. God can heal any disease, but He is not obligated to do so."
- Warren Wiersbe

"God certainly can, and sometimes does, heal people in a miraculous way today. But the Bible does not teach that He will always heal those who come to Him in faith. He sovereignly reserves the right to heal or not to heal as He sees fit. From time to time God, in His mercy, may grant us healing from disease as a gracious glimpse, a ‘sneak preview’ of what is to come. It is my opinion that He sometimes does. But, in view of the fact that the kingdom has not yet come in its fullness, we are not to automatically expect it."
- Joni Eareckson Tada

“My dear Senator, I am not called to be successful, but faithful.”
- Mother Teresa to Senator Mark Hatfield who asked her, “How can you bear the load without being crushed by it?”

“Is your place a small place?
Tend it with care!—
He set you there.
Is your place a large place?
Guard it with care!—
He set you there.
Whate’er your place, it is not yours alone,
But his who set you there.”
- John Oxenham
