John Howard Yoder on Trust Beyond Security - Anabaptist (Proverbs 3:5-6)
Source: John Howard Yoder52 words
"'Trust in the Lord'—not in armies, not in political power, not in violence. The world's understanding says secure yourself; God's way says trust Me. The straight path may look foolish to those who trust in swords, but it is the way of Jesus." — John Howard Yoder. Anabaptist: trust over worldly security.
