marginalia

acerbity- (esp. of a comment or style of speaking) sharp and forthright

***
"Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weakness. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. Now He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He makes intercession for the saints according to the will of God." Romans 8:26-27

"Stilled now be every anxious care;
See God's great goodness everywhere;
Leave all to Him in perfect rest:
He will do all things for the best."
anonymus Keep a Quiet Heart

"It is in His providence that has put us where we are. It's where we belong. It is for us to receive it--all of it--humbly, quietly, thankfully." -Elizabeth Elliot Keep a Quiet Heart

"The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. Let us not become conceited, provoking on another, envying one another." Galatians 5:22&23, 25&26
