"'Aslan is a lion--the Lion, the great Lion.' 'Ooh' said Susan. 'I'd thought he was a man. Is he quite safe? I shall feel rather nervous about meeting a lion'...'Safe?' said Mr. Beaver...'Who said anything about safe? 'Course he isn't safe. But he's good. He's the king. I tell you.'" ~C.S. Lewis

When Danger Calls

"The fishermen know that the sea is dangerous and the storm terrible, but they have never found these dangers sufficient reason for remaining ashore." ~Vincent Van Gogh

A way of trust in the midst of storms

"It is not light that we need, but fire; It is not the gentle shower, but thunder. We need the storm, the whirlwind, and the earthquake." ~Frederick Douglass
