If 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.

If in prayer I come before a throne of grace, the faults of my prayer will be overlooked.

Why is it that although it takes us years to get into our messes, we expect God to get us out of them in a few days?

I don’t think that the total creation took place in six days as we now measure time. If we can confirm, say, the Big Bang theory, that doesn’t at all cause me to question my faith that God created the Big Bang.

Only our individual faith in freedom can keep us free.

Few men would dare to read their own autobiography if all their deeds were recorded in it; few can look back upon their entire career without a blush.

Through fidelity, we situate ourselves and maintain ourselves in the hands of God so exactly as to become one with them in their action.

To some degree it matters who’s in office, but it matters more how much pressure they’re under from the public.

People who add value to others do so intentionally. I say that because to add value, leaders must give of themselves, and that rarely occurs by accident.

I believe that nothing happens apart from divine determination and decree. We shall never be able to escape from the doctrine of divine predestination – the doctrine that God has foreordained certain people unto eternal life.

I set records that will never be equaled. In fact, I hope 90% of them don’t even get printed.

A President needs political understanding to run the government, but he may be elected without it.

That’s the shock: All cliches are true. The years really do speed by. Life really is as short as they tell you it is. And there really is a God – so do I buy that one? If all the other cliches are true… Hell, don’t pose me that one.

I desire to press forward for direction to my Master in all things; but as to trusting to my own obedience and righteousness, I should be worse than a fool and ten times worse than a madman.

We need every person on Earth to acknowledge that climate change is real and encourage each other and our leaders to address the challenge.

Our faith is released as we say, pray and do the Word.

Grow in the root of all grace, which is faith. Believe God’s promises more firmly than ever. Allow your faith to increase in its fullness, firmness, and simplicity.

The mob is the mother of tyrants.

Dear friends, we may well sing to our Beloved when it is near the time of our departure. It draws near, and as it approaches, we must not dread it, but rather thank God for it.

We need an adult in the White House. When making life-or-death, war-or-peace decisions, a president can’t just pop off or lash out irrationally.

A leader is a dealer in hope.

What religion a man holds, to what race he belongs, these things are not important; the really important thing is this knowledge: the knowledge of God’s plan for men. For God has a plan, and that plan is evolution.

Atheism is a non-prophet organization.

God is patient with us to become the God’s children he wants us to be but you really can see him weeping.

Especially when you’re at a high level in an organization, criticism can be devastating to an employee. I prefer to praise employees for what they’re doing right, and it tends to lead to them doing more of the same. Not always, but it’s the way I choose to bet.

When you feel like it’s too hard to obey God, remember that He will never tell you to do something without giving you the grace, power and ability to do it.

God’s got you in the palm of His hand. You won’t leave one second before your time. If God wants you to be here, then you’re going to be here.

Some day I shall be President.

Religion is not a department of life; it is something that enters into the whole of it.

I am a Catholic because I choose to be a Catholic. And then I go to the Mass because I choose. It is out of my free will.

God is absence. God is the solitude of man.

If you gain, you gain all. If you lose, you lose nothing. Wager then, without hesitation, that He exists.

No one should fear to undertake any task in the name of our Saviour, if it is just and if the intention is purely for His holy service.

Being the boss anywhere is lonely. Being a female boss in a world of mostly men is especially so.

If I had to choose a religion, the sun as the universal giver of life would be my god.

I’m responsible for starting a whole new school of pretension.

You see, God helps only people who work hard. That principle is very clear.

I believe in Coach Louis Wong. He is so much more than just a football coach.

We can’t all be heroes, because somebody has to sit on the curb and applaud when they go by.

My message is that God is a good God.

I was always respectful of people who were deeply religious because I always felt that if they gave themselves to it, then it had to be important to them. But if you can go through life without it, that’s OK, too. It’s whatever suits you.

He who knows best knows how little he knows.

A belief is purely an individual matter, and you cannot and must not organize it. If you do, it becomes dead, crystallized; it becomes a creed, a sect, a religion, to be imposed on others.

God created man, but I could do better.

Leadership is solving problems. The day soldiers stop bringing you their problems is the day you have stopped leading them. They have either lost confidence that you can help or concluded you do not care. Either case is a failure of leadership.

Communism has decided against God, against Christ, against the Bible, and against all religion.

We all face storms in life. Some are more difficult than others, but we all go through trials and tribulation. That’s why we have the gift of faith.

If you want to improve, be content to be thought foolish and stupid.

What I admire most about Hillary is that she never buckles under pressure. She never takes the easy way out. And Hillary Clinton has never quit on anything in her life. And when I think about the kind of president that I want for my girls and all our children, that’s what I want.

What was God doing before the divine creation?

Each time we cooperate with God, we take one more giant step forward. Because when God asks us to change, it means that He always has something better to give us – more freedom, greater joy, and greater blessings.

To me, ideology is corrupt; it’s a parasite on religious structures. To be an ideologue is to have all of the terrible things that are associated with religious certainty and none of the utility. If you’re an ideologue, you believe everything that you think. If you’re religious, there’s a mystery left there.

Many years ago, I concluded that a few hair shirts were part of the mental wardrobe of every man. The president differs from other men in that he has a more extensive wardrobe.

If God had wanted me otherwise, He would have created me otherwise.

I can tell you this: If I’m ever in a position to call the shots, I’m not going to rush to send somebody else’s kids into a war.

If I am not, may God put me there; and if I am, may God so keep me.

There 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.

No man will ever carry out of the Presidency the reputation which carried him into it.

Authority poisons everybody who takes authority on himself.

Religion is part of the human make-up. It’s also part of our cultural and intellectual history. Religion was our first attempt at literature, the texts, our first attempt at cosmology, making sense of where we are in the universe, our first attempt at health care, believing in faith healing, our first attempt at philosophy.

Stay humble and be concerned for the less fortunate.
