How much better it would be if all could be more aware of God’s providence and love and express that gratitude to Him.
Russell M. NelsonI 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.
Paulo CoelhoAll I have seen teaches me to trust the creator for all I have not seen.
Ralph Waldo EmersonThe eyes of the soul of the multitudes are unable to endure the vision of the divine.
PlatoHeathenism is a state of mind. You can take it that I’m referring to one who does not see his world. He has no mental light. He destroys almost unwittingly. He cannot feel any Gods presence in his life. He is the 21st century man.
David BowieYou carry Mother Earth within you. She is not outside of you. Mother Earth is not just your environment. In that insight of inter-being, it is possible to have real communication with the Earth, which is the highest form of prayer.
Thich Nhat HanhUncontrolled, the hunger and thirst after God may become an obstacle, cutting off the soul from what it desires. If a man would travel far along the mystic road, he must learn to desire God intensely but in stillness, passively and yet with all his heart and mind and strength.
Aldous HuxleyReligion is just mind control.
George CarlinChristianity is a lifestyle. And being a Christian is more than a label.

Joyce MeyerI 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 OsteenLove, we say, is life; but love without hope and faith is agonizing death.
Elbert HubbardI 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 OsteenEach 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.

Emily DickinsonHas Jesus saved me? I dare not speak with any hesitation here; I know He has. His Word is true; therefore, I am saved.
Charles SpurgeonWhatever universe a professor believes in must at any rate be a universe that lends itself to lengthy discourse. A universe definable in two sentences is something for which the professorial intellect has no use. No faith in anything of that cheap kind!
William JamesI try to speak in everyday language. I feel like God has gifted me to take Bible principles and make them practical.
Joel OsteenChrist managed to boil down an awful lot of commandments to a few very simple rules for living. It’s when you go backwards through the ‚begats‘ and the Garden of Eden, and you start thinking, ‚Hang on, that’s a big punishment for eating one lousy apple… There’s a human-rights issue.‘
Terry PratchettPeople make suggestions on what to say all the time. I’ll give you an example; I don’t read what’s handed to me. People say, ‚Here, here’s your speech, or here’s an idea for a speech.‘ They’re changed. Trust me.
George W. BushThe big message of gospel is that you don’t have to keep fighting the universe; you can stop, and the universe is quite good to you. There is a loss of ego.
Brian EnoLet us more and more insist on raising funds of love, of kindness, of understanding, of peace. Money will come if we seek first the Kingdom of God – the rest will be given.
Mother TeresaWhy am I here? I’m not lucky. That’s God.
Mr. TTo keep your secret is wisdom; but to expect others to keep it is folly.
Samuel JohnsonMost of us have hoped and prayed for something to happen a certain way, but it didn’t. And when this happened, we had a choice to make: to react with offense toward God or to trust Him anyway.
Joyce MeyerI say, don’t try to fight your own battles because God will do it.
Joel OsteenI always ask God to work through me and let me be a light of some kind and help in this world, so I always pray for that, and I always want to do good.
Dolly PartonI got a greater purpose. God put something in my heart to get across, and that’s what I’m going to focus on, using my voice as an instrument and doing what needs to be done.

Helen KellerIn the absence of any other proof, the thumb alone would convince me of God’s existence.
Isaac NewtonA good Catholic meddles in politics, offering the best of himself, so that those who govern can govern. But what is the best that we can offer to those who govern? Prayer!
Pope FrancisGod didn’t make me to make movies, flex muscles, buy gold. What you love the most becomes your God… If I never make another dollar, my life is complete.
Mr. TYou can either be a host to God, or a hostage to your ego. It’s your call.
Wayne DyerI see clearly that the thing the church needs most today is the ability to heal wounds and to warm the hearts of the faithful; it needs nearness, proximity.
Pope FrancisGod works wonders now and then; Behold a lawyer, an honest man.
Benjamin FranklinHe chose to honor us with His priesthood. So we honor Him by honoring His priesthood – both its power and those who bear it.
Russell M. NelsonRefuse to be a lazy Christian, and resist a passive, apathetic attitude.
Joyce MeyerTo surrender to ignorance and call it God has always been premature, and it remains premature today.

Franz KafkaOnly when you drink from the river of silence shall you indeed sing. And when you have reached the mountain top, then you shall begin to climb. And when the earth shall claim your limbs, then shall you truly dance.
Khalil GibranYou know, God gave me a gift to do other things besides play the game of basketball.
LeBron JamesWhatever is making you so angry, it’s time for you to give it to God and get over it.
Joyce MeyerReligion is excellent stuff for keeping common people quiet.
Napoleon BonaparteI am not going to Heaven because I have preached to great crowds or read the Bible many times. I’m going to Heaven just like the thief on the cross who said in that last moment: ‚Lord, remember me.‘
Billy Graham
