To every soul that knows how to pray, to every soul that by faith comes to Jesus, the true mercy seat, divine sovereignty wears no dark and terrible aspect but is full of love.
Charles SpurgeonIt is good to be tired and wearied by the futile search after the true good, that we may stretch out our arms to the Redeemer.
Blaise PascalIf the Christian is a restorationist, a legalist, if he wants everything clear and safe, then he will find nothing. Tradition and memory of the past must help us to have the courage to open up new areas to God.

Pope FrancisI love tattoos. And mine symbolise who I really am. I have a Samurai on my left arm. At a subconscious level, I connect to this warrior and model myself on his discipline, skills and honour. There is also a tribal tattoo and a Chinese symbol of faith. I have seen a lot of people getting tattoos just because it’s a trend.
Virat KohliWe were old sinners – but when we came to Christ we are not sinners anymore.
Joel OsteenIf I am not, may God put me there; and if I am, may God so keep me.
Joan of ArcThere is only one religion, though there are a hundred versions of it.

Mother TeresaThe incomparable greatness of the religions of the East lies in their having been second to none in vibrating with the passion for unity. This note, which is essential to every form of mysticism, has even penetrated them so deeply that we find ourselves falling under a spell simply by uttering the names of their Gods.

Mahatma GandhiThe outer passes away; the innermost is the same yesterday, today, and forever.

Maya AngelouYou don’t see too many atheists on the deathbed. They all start cramming then.
Dolly PartonGod’s Spirit moves through us and the world at a pace that can never be constricted by any one religious paradigm. I love that.
BonoIt’s like a jar of salad dressing sitting on a shelf… most of the seasoning settles to the bottom of the bottle. But when you shake that bottle up, all the ingredients mix together and then the dressing can add flavor to a salad. In the same way, we can stir ourselves up and regain the reverence, respect and awe we once had for the Lord.
Joyce MeyerEven more amazing than modern technology is our opportunity to access information directly from Heaven, without hardware, software, or monthly service fees.

Mahatma GandhiAs a child of God, I am greater than anything that can happen to me.
A. P. J. Abdul KalamA sense of the universe, a sense of the all, the nostalgia which seizes us when confronted by nature, beauty, music – these seem to be an expectation and awareness of a Great Presence.
Pierre Teilhard de ChardinThere is nothing that wastes the body like worry, and one who has any faith in God should be ashamed to worry about anything whatsoever.
Mahatma GandhiWhen it comes to our everyday habits, it’s important to ask: ‚Am I putting God first?‘
Joyce MeyerI do not believe there is a problem in this country or the world today which could not be settled if approached through the teaching of the Sermon on the Mount.
Harry S. TrumanEverything God tells us to do is for our good. Whether it’s direction you get in His Word or something He’s specifically put in your heart for your situation in life, the absolute best thing you can ever do is obey Him promptly and completely.
Joyce MeyerGod sent me on earth. He send me to do something, and nobody can stop me. If God want to stop me, then I stop. Man never can.
Bob MarleyLet not a libation of tears be the only offering at the shrine of Jesus; let us also rejoice with joy unspeakable. If we have need to lament our sin, how much more to rejoice at our pardon!
Charles SpurgeonSometimes I just sit still and enjoy God’s presence.
Joyce MeyerBut the attitude of faith is to let go, and become open to truth, whatever it might turn out to be.
Alan WattsLove of God is not always the same as love of good.
Hermann HesseForgiveness is not a feeling – it’s a decision we make because we want to do what’s right before God. It’s a quality decision that won’t be easy and it may take time to get through the process, depending on the severity of the offense.
Joyce MeyerFaith is the strength by which a shattered world shall emerge into the light.
Helen KellerI don’t think you should spend your life praying for things, but I do believe you should thank God for what He’s given you… but I think the scripture teaches us that we can pray for our dreams, pray for the big things… he’s not a small God; this God is incredible.
Joel OsteenThe ‚soul‘ is one of the words you can use to talk about your innermost being, the essence of who you are.

Joel OsteenFaith never makes a confession.
Henry David ThoreauFaith activates God – Fear activates the Enemy.
Joel OsteenI answer only to God.
Mr. TI did once seriously think of embracing the Christian faith. The gentle figure of Christ, so full of forgiveness that he taught his followers not to retaliate when abused or struck, but to turn the other cheek – I thought it was a beautiful example of the perfect man.
Mahatma Gandhi
