Absolutes Quote by Edward McKendree Bounds

“Trust is faith that has become absolute, approved, and accomplished. When all is said and done, there is a sort of risk in faith and its exercise. But trust is firm belief; it is faith in full bloom. Trust is a conscious act, a fact of which we are aware.” quote by Edward McKendree Bounds
