Happiness is just another of the tricks that our genetic system plays on us to carry out its only role, which is the survival of the species.
Paulo CoelhoI believe that Jesus realized his oneness with God and he showed, what he attempted to do was show the way to all of us, how to realize our own onenes with God also, so he’s a precursor.

Pierre Teilhard de ChardinMany persons have a wrong idea of what constitutes true happiness. It is not attained through self-gratification but through fidelity to a worthy purpose.

Joyce MeyerGod may be subtle, but he isn’t plain mean.
Albert EinsteinHe is dead in this world who has no belief in another.

J. K. RowlingGod, as Truth, has been for me a treasure beyond price. May He be so to every one of us.
Mahatma GandhiThose convinced against their will are of the same opinion still.
Dale CarnegiePrayer is simply a two-way conversation between you and God.
Billy GrahamIf one has the answers to all the questions – that is the proof that God is not with him. It means that he is a false prophet using religion for himself. The great leaders of the people of God, like Moses, have always left room for doubt. You must leave room for the Lord, not for our certainties; we must be humble.
Pope FrancisWhen granted many years of life, growing old in age is natural, but growing old with grace is a choice. Growing older with grace is possible for all who will set their hearts and minds on the Giver of grace, the Lord Jesus Christ.

BonoThe essence of philosophy is that a man should so live that his happiness shall depend as little as possible on external things.
EpictetusReligious organizations exist to foster the interests of persons subscribing to the same religious faith. Not so of for-profit corporations. Workers who sustain the operations of those corporations commonly are not drawn from one religious community.
Ruth Bader GinsburgScoutcraft is a means through which the veriest hooligan can be brought to higher thought and to the elements of faith in God; and, coupled with the Scout’s obligation to do a good turn every day, it gives the base of Duty to God and to Neighbour on which the parent or pastor can build with greater ease the form of belief that is desired.
Robert Baden-PowellIt is a most delightful reflection that if I come to the throne of God in prayer, I may feel a thousand defects, but yet there is hope. I usually feel more dissatisfied with my prayers than with anything else I do.

I didn’t know how to think right. I felt wrong about everything. But God stepped into my life, and I came out on the other side and didn’t even smell like smoke.
Joyce MeyerYes, God does expect us to live holy, consecrated lives. But not even the best of our intentions can make it happen. Thankfully, He doesn’t expect us to make ourselves holy. He just wants us to learn to depend on Him to make us holy.
Joyce MeyerThe bad fortune of the good turns their faces up to heaven; the good fortune of the bad bows their heads down to the earth.
Lucius Annaeus SenecaThere are so many things we have to overcome in this life with Jesus, His work on the cross. He’s paid the ultimate price for us, so I’m proud to be a child of God.
Stephen CurryIf I died tomorrow, I would be a happy girl.
Amy WinehouseNot brute force but only persuasion and faith are the kings of this world.
Thomas CarlyleWe need to reject any politics that targets people because of race or religion. This isn’t a matter of political correctness. It’s a matter of understanding what makes us strong. The world respects us not just for our arsenal; it respects us for our diversity and our openness and the way we respect every faith.
Barack ObamaIt is incomprehensible that God should exist, and it is incomprehensible that he should not exist.
Blaise PascalIt isn’t necessary to have relatives in Kansas City in order to be unhappy.
Groucho MarxThere’s plenty about God that I don’t understand and can’t explain. But I come back to my core belief that God is good, that He’s for us.
Joel OsteenI don’t have many sad days.
Billy GrahamWhen doubt comes against us, we have to lift up the shield of faith. We do this when we open our mouth and say what God’s Word says, rather than grumbling and complaining about the problem.
Joyce MeyerThe Christian’s Bible is a drug store. Its contents remain the same, but the medical practice changes.

Lao TzuA thing is not necessarily true because a man dies for it.
Oscar WildeIn the Church, and in the journey of faith, women have had and still have a special role in opening doors to the Lord.

Friedrich NietzscheNo matter how happily a woman may be married, it always pleases her to discover that there is a nice man who wishes that she were not.
H. L. MenckenWe clearly see in God’s Word that anything He tells us to do, He will give us the ability to do it. But do we really believe it? Do we want to believe it? It’s easier to come up with excuses for why we can’t do things that are hard or that we really don’t want to do.
Joyce Meyer
