There is absolutely no power in our human effort to live holy. It is only by His grace. And the result of receiving grace is we get better at living like Christ, which is something we all want, right?
Joyce MeyerLet God’s promises shine on your problems.

Cristiano RonaldoDuty cannot exist without faith.
Benjamin DisraeliGod always has patience.
Pope FrancisThe ways of the Lord are different from the ways of man. Man’s ways remove people from office or business when they grow old or become disabled. But man’s ways are not and never will be the Lord’s ways.

Martin LutherMy choices, including those related to the day-to-day aspects of life, like the use of a modest car, are related to a spiritual discernment that responds to a need that arises from looking at things, at people and from reading the signs of the times. Discernment in the Lord guides me in my way of governing.
Pope FrancisDon’t be misled by those who claim God doesn’t exist, because He does.
Billy GrahamI’ve been praying that we might have a spiritual awakening. But I think that becomes possible as individuals surrender their lives fresh and anew to Christ.
Billy GrahamI’ve always been – you know, my personality is motivating and encouraging. And so I’m just being who God made me to be.

Abraham LincolnA better world shall emerge based on faith and understanding.
Douglas MacArthurI made a decision when my father passed away that I was going to be who God made me to be and not try to preach like my father.
Joel OsteenHave we been going up and down in business, and are those round about us as yet unaware of our Christian character? Have we never spoken to them the Word of Life? Lord, arouse us to a deep concern for all with whom we come in contact from day to day.
Charles SpurgeonThree can keep a secret, if two of them are dead.
Benjamin FranklinThe highest revelation is that God is in every man.
Ralph Waldo EmersonI believe if you keep your faith, you keep your trust, you keep the right attitude, if you’re grateful, you’ll see God open up new doors.
Joel OsteenIt’s not the tools that you have faith in – tools are just tools. They work, or they don’t work. It’s people you have faith in or not. Yeah, sure, I’m still optimistic I mean, I get pessimistic sometimes but not for long.
Steve JobsThe conscience can be a strong guide in life if we allow it.
Joyce MeyerLet us raise a standard to which the wise and honest can repair; the rest is in the hands of God.

Benjamin FranklinGod’s Spirit moves through us and the world at a pace that can never be constricted by any one religious paradigm.
BonoOnce elected, the Pope is by virtue of the promise of Jesus to Peter, the Pope is preserved from the possibility of error. God would change any spend thrift politician into a responsible Pope.
Pope FrancisGod gives the nuts, but he does not crack them.
Franz KafkaI would rather live my life as if there is a God and die to find out there isn’t, than live as if there isn’t and to die to find out that there is.
Albert CamusActing is just a process of relaxation, actually. Knowing the text so well and trusting that the instinct and the subconscious mind, whatever you want to call it, is going to take over.
Anthony HopkinsIn spiritual things, it is God who performs all things for you. Rest in Him, then.
Charles SpurgeonThe Bible shows the way to go to heaven, not the way the heavens go.
Galileo GalileiGod cannot be realized through the intellect. Intellect can lead one to a certain extent and no further. It is a matter of faith and experience derived from that faith.
Mahatma GandhiGod is everywhere.
A. P. J. Abdul KalamThe Bible says to ‚fear not,‘ but this doesn’t mean you should never feel scared. It means when you do feel fear, keep going forward and do what you are supposed to do. Or as I like to say, do it afraid.
Joyce MeyerI believe many people feel like God is mad at them. One day I put a post on Facebook that said, ‚God is not mad at you.‘ Within a few hours, we literally had thousands of positive responses from people saying things like, ‚That is exactly what I needed to hear today.‘ Obviously, this is a message we need to hear.
Joyce MeyerI believe that God has planted in every heart the desire to live in freedom.
George W. BushJust as treasures are uncovered from the earth, so virtue appears from good deeds, and wisdom appears from a pure and peaceful mind. To walk safely through the maze of human life, one needs the light of wisdom and the guidance of virtue.
BuddhaI am just one of many thousands called to be an evangelist.
Billy GrahamI do know this… I seem to reach a lot of previously unchurched people. So many people have told me they never went to church until they heard our message of hope that God is a good God who desires to bless those who are faithful and obedient to Him through Jesus Christ.
Joel OsteenI am a nuclear physicist by training and a deeply committed Christian. I don’t have any doubt in my own mind about God who created the entire universe. But I don’t adhere to passages that so and so was created 4,000 years before Christ, and things of that kind.
Jimmy CarterJesus isn’t lettin‘ you off the hook. The Scriptures don’t let you off the hook so easily… When people say, you know, ‚Good teacher‘, ‚Prophet‘, ‚Really nice guy‘ … this is not how Jesus thought of Himself.
BonoMy belief as a Christian is when we receive Christ as salvation, that that gives us a guarantee for Heaven.
Joel OsteenEvery day is a gift from God. There’s no guarantee of tomorrow, so that tells me to see the good in this day to make the most of it.
Joel OsteenPeople have to go through trials and tribulations to get where they at. Do your thing – continue to rock it – because obviously, God wants you here.
Kendrick LamarIf you obey all the rules you miss all the fun.
Katharine HepburnBe courteous to all, but intimate with few, and let those few be well tried before you give them your confidence.
George WashingtonI think that is a better thing than thanksgiving: thanks-living. How is this to be done? By a general cheerfulness of manner, by an obedience to the command of Him by whose mercy we live, by a perpetual, constant delighting of ourselves in the Lord, and by a submission of our desires to His will.
Charles SpurgeonA casual stroll through the lunatic asylum shows that faith does not prove anything.
Friedrich Nietzsche
