MORE ENCOURAGING QUOTES

Compliments cost nothing, yet many pay dear for them.

|| Thomas Fuller

Good words do more than hard speeches, as the sunbeams, without any noise, will make the traveler cast off his cloak, which all the blustering winds could not do, but only make him bind it closer to him.

|| F.B. Meyer

He (God) usually prefers to work through people rather than perform miracles, so that we will depend on each other for fellowship.

To say, 'well done' to any bit of good work is to take hold of the powers which have made the effort and strengthen them beyond our knowledge.

|| Phillips Brooks

It was well done of Paul to reprove Peter to his face, and it was well done of Peter, to praise Paul in his absence.
