Calvin on Faith

Since I’m spending so much free time reading for my Church History II class (Reformation), I thought I’d continue the quotes from the Reformers. Here is a beautiful quote from Calvin that is just as relevant today:

“Faith does not promise us length of days, riches and honors (the Lord not having been pleased that any of these should be appointed us); but is contented with the assurance, that however poor we may be in regard to present comforts, God will never fail us.”
