For me, it’s about the way I carry myself and the way I treat other people. My relationship and how I feel about God and what He does for me, is something deeply personal. It’s where I came from, my family, I was brought up in a religious household and that’s very important to me.
Beyonce KnowlesAll of us are guinea pigs in the laboratory of God. Humanity is just a work in progress.
Tennessee WilliamsLord sanctify us. Oh! That Thy spirit might come and saturate every faculty, subdue every passion, and use every power of our nature for obedience to God.
Charles SpurgeonAll who call on God in true faith, earnestly from the heart, will certainly be heard, and will receive what they have asked and desired.
Martin LutherClinicians, academicians, and politicians are often put to a test of faith. In pursuit of their goals, will their religion show or will it be hidden? Are they tied back to God or to man?
Russell M. NelsonMy wife is already in Heaven.
Billy GrahamAt the age when other children, I imagine, experience their first ‚feeling‘ for a person, or for art, or for religion, I was affectionate, good, and even pious: by that I mean that under the influence of my mother, I was devoted to the Child Jesus.
Pierre Teilhard de ChardinWe 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 MeyerToday I love myself as I love my god: who could charge me with a sin today? I know only sins against my god; but who knows my god?
Friedrich NietzscheAll men’s souls are immortal, but the souls of the righteous are immortal and divine.
SocratesThe fact that my 15 minutes of fame has extended a little longer than 15 minutes is somewhat surprising to me and completely baffling to my wife.
Barack ObamaI am a sinner. This is the most accurate definition. It is not a figure of speech, a literary genre. I am a sinner.
Pope FrancisTo feel not only submitted but willing to be anything or nothing as the Lord wills it – this is, in truth, to sing a song to our Well Beloved.
Charles SpurgeonIt is a kind of spiritual snobbery that makes people think they can be happy without money.
Albert CamusGod is a great God! I want to encourage you to expect great things from Him.
Joyce MeyerWithin the covers of the Bible are the answers for all the problems men face.
Ronald ReaganThe Lord can give, and the Lord can take away. I might be herding sheep next year.
Elvis PresleyThe person you consider ignorant and insignificant is the one who came from God, that he might learn bliss from grief and knowledge from gloom.
Khalil GibranI spent most of the early years of my walk with God focused on what was wrong with me. Most of us probably do that, hoping to change ourselves.
Joyce MeyerPeople who don’t know the true character of God – who don’t believe He is merciful, gracious and slow to anger – can never have a close, personal, intimate relationship with Him.
Joyce MeyerBeing part of a community with a church at its centre and singin‘ hymns is a great thing to do.
Vivienne WestwoodFaith is a knowledge within the heart, beyond the reach of proof.
Khalil GibranBy its birth, and for all time, Christianity is pledged to the Cross and dominated by the sign of the Cross. It cannot remain its own self except by identifying itself ever more intensely with the essence of the Cross.
Pierre Teilhard de ChardinThere are some Christian people who taste and see and enjoy religion in their own souls, and who get at a deeper knowledge of it than books can ever give them, though they should search all their days.
Charles SpurgeonEvery day I pray about all I do.
Dolly PartonPrayer is the key of the morning and the bolt of the evening.
Mahatma GandhiA man is born alone and dies alone; and he experiences the good and bad consequences of his karma alone; and he goes alone to hell or the Supreme abode.
ChanakyaI’m married. My wife, Stella – a beautiful woman. She’s brought a lot of peace to my life, a lot of wisdom.
Anthony HopkinsI consider wisdom supernatural because it isn’t taught by men – it’s a gift from God.
Joyce MeyerThe truth is, if we don’t learn to submit to authority, we won’t ever learn to submit to God.
Joyce MeyerAs you read or listen to God’s Word and spend time talking to Him in prayer, your spirit will eventually become stronger than your flesh.
Joyce MeyerThere is an afterlife. I am convinced of this.
Paulo CoelhoAll our actions, as well as our thoughts and words, should praise Him who always blesses us.
Charles SpurgeonThe major religions, Christianity, Judaism, Islam, they deny somehow that God has a feminine face. However, if you go to the holy texts, you see there is this feminine presence.
Paulo CoelhoDon’t be misled by those who claim God doesn’t exist, because He does.
Billy GrahamMy dear wife has, I would say, probably never opened a religious book, and seems to be one of those people to whom the whole idea is utterly remote and absurd.
Christopher HitchensWe see God face to face every hour, and know the savor of Nature.
Ralph Waldo EmersonI know that the Lord is always on the side of the right; but it is my constant anxiety and prayer that I and this nation may be on the Lord’s side.
Abraham LincolnWe are separated from God on two sides; the Fall separates us from Him, the Tree of Life separates Him from us.
Franz KafkaFaith means belief in something concerning which doubt is theoretically possible.
William JamesI’m trying to make God more relevant in our society. And I think talking in everyday terms and making sure people can understand it – I think that’s important.
Joel OsteenI believe in believing. My coach John Kavanagh is a big atheist, and he is always trying to persuade people to his way of thinking, and I think, ‚What a waste of energy.‘ If people want to believe in this god or that god, that’s fine by me; believe away. But I think we can be our own gods. I believe in myself.
Conor McGregorMany Tibetans sacrifice their lives.
Dalai LamaThere is always the danger that we may just do the work for the sake of the work. This is where the respect and the love and the devotion come in – that we do it to God, to Christ, and that’s why we try to do it as beautifully as possible.
Mother TeresaAnd we are never too old to study the Bible. Each time the lessons are studied comes some new meaning, some new thought which will make us better.
John D. RockefellerGod is the same God, always and everywhere. He is omnipresent not virtually only, but also substantially, for virtue cannot subsist without substance.
Isaac NewtonI don’t set out to write about spirituality; I am free to do something different every time.
Paulo CoelhoThrough fidelity, we situate ourselves and maintain ourselves in the hands of God so exactly as to become one with them in their action.
Pierre Teilhard de ChardinIn the Bible, we first encounter God when he sides with a bunch of slaves against a powerful Pharaoh, an act of grace freely given.
Desmond TutuI believe that some of us who were kept by God a long while before we found Him love Him better perhaps than we should have done if we had received Him directly, and we can preach better to others – we can speak more of His loving-kindness and tender mercy.
Charles SpurgeonThe Bible says today is the accepted time, today is the day of salvation… But there will come a time when it will be too late for you.
Billy GrahamHappiness is neither without us nor within us. It is in God, both without us and within us.
Blaise PascalI read the Bible every day.
Denzel WashingtonWell look, I mean, I think that prayer and holy water, and things like that are all fine. They don’t do any good, but they don’t necessarily do any harm. It’s touching to be thought of in that way. It makes up for those who tell me that I’ve got my just desserts.
Christopher HitchensI always try to put a seed of hope into people’s hearts. I’m not there to teach them doctrine necessarily, but to let them know that God is a good God, and has a plan for their lives. Hopefully, that will restore their faith, or draw them into faith.
Joel OsteenThe ‚soul‘ is one of the words you can use to talk about your innermost being, the essence of who you are.
Eckhart TolleOne of my major keys is actually the master keys: God.
DJ KhaledSo many people live with anger and unforgiveness, and many of them are Christians.
Joyce MeyerThe greatest enemy to human souls is the self-righteous spirit which makes men look to themselves for salvation.
Charles SpurgeonForgiveness is God’s command.
Martin Luther
