“Trusting in Him, who can go with me, and remain with you and be everywhere for good, let us confidently hope that all will yet be well. To His care commending you, as I hope in your prayers you will commend me, I bid you an affectionate farewell.”

About this quote
It calls for placing worry into a steadier hand while facing what you must do next. Use that hope to sharpen your choices, accept responsibility, and move with deliberate action. Hope is not an escape—make it the foundation for steady work, clear priorities, and honest accountability.
When to use it
- Close a farewell email to a team after a difficult project, asking them to carry on with steady effort and mutual care.
- Before a major life change, say the line to remind yourself: trust the steady principles, then plan and act without delay.
- Use the sentiment when comforting a friend: encourage hope but insist they take concrete steps to improve their situation.
- End a personal journal entry with the farewell to commit to accountability and to request moral support from others.
