I cannot believe in a God who wants to be praised all the time.
Friedrich NietzscheHe who has faith has… an inward reservoir of courage, hope, confidence, calmness, and assuring trust that all will come out well – even though to the world it may appear to come out most badly.
B. C. ForbesThe way to see by Faith is to shut the Eye of Reason.
Benjamin FranklinGod has already done everything He’s going to do. The ball is now in your court. If you want success, if you want wisdom, if you want to be prosperous and healthy, you’re going to have to do more than meditate and believe; you must boldly declare words of faith and victory over yourself and your family.
Joel OsteenMan shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.
Jesus ChristMy religion teaches me that whenever there is distress which one cannot remove, one must fast and pray.
Mahatma GandhiGod is patient with us to become the God’s children he wants us to be but you really can see him weeping.
Desmond TutuIsn’t it amazing that we are all made in God’s image, and yet there is so much diversity among his people?
Desmond TutuI think a big test we all face in life on a regular basis is that discouragement test. Life’s not always fair, but I believe if you keep doing the right thing, God will get you to where you are.
Joel OsteenEvery day is a gift from God. Learn to focus on the Giver and enjoy the gift!
Joyce MeyerThe only answer to fear is faith in God, knowing He loves you unconditionally and individually.
Joyce MeyerReligion is something left over from the infancy of our intelligence, it will fade away as we adopt reason and science as our guidelines.
Bertrand RussellObedience to God is the pathway to the life you really want to live.
Joyce MeyerThe Christian ideal has not been tried and found wanting; it has been found difficult and left untried.
Gilbert K. ChestertonOnly he can take great resolves who has indomitable faith in God and has fear of God.
Mahatma GandhiI believe God’s keeping the records, and I believe you will be rewarded even in this life. Somehow, some way, God will make it up to you. It may be He protected you from an accident you never knew. You can’t give God something without God giving you more in return, whether it’s peace or joy or satisfaction.
Joel OsteenI was raised a Catholic on both sides of the family. I went to a Catholic grade school and thought everybody in the country was Catholic, because that’s all I ever was associated with.
Lou HoltzThere’s a belief that you’re supposed to be poor, and suffering, and show your humility. I just don’t see the Bible that way. I see that God came and Jesus died so that we might live an abundant life and be a blessing to others.
Joel OsteenYou don’t have to be like everybody else or do things like everybody else. God created you to be a unique individual, and He wants you to be free to be who He made you to be.
Joyce MeyerOnly Americans can hurt America.
Dwight D. EisenhowerThe last person I have ever criticized is an official. They have a tough job to do. Things are happening so quick.
Tom BradyBeing no bigot myself to any mode of worship, I am disposed to endulge the professors of Christianity in the church, that road to heaven which to them shall seem the most direct plainest easiest and least liable to exception.
George WashingtonI work very hard, but when God opens that door for you – when life opens that door for you, I should say – I think it’s important to be giving, to return the love back.
Lady GagaFirst of all, you ask me if the God of Christians forgives one who doesn’t believe and doesn’t seek the faith. Premise that – and it’s the fundamental thing – the mercy of God has no limits if one turns to him with a sincere and contrite heart; the question for one who doesn’t believe in God lies in obeying one’s conscience.
Pope FrancisI am sorry to think that you do not get a man’s most effective criticism until you provoke him. Severe truth is expressed with some bitterness.
Henry David ThoreauThe blessed of us must save the less of us. I’m blessed, and yeah, I’m planning to go to Heaven.
Mr. TA person who thinks only about building walls, wherever they may be, and not building bridges is not Christian. This is not in the Gospel.
Pope FrancisWe Jews have a secret weapon in our struggle with the Arabs; we have no place to go.
Golda MeirGlam really did plant seeds for a new identity. I think a lot of kids needed that – that sense of reinvention. Kids learned that however crazy you may think it is, there is a place for what you want to do and who you want to be.
David BowieEverything is subject to change except God Himself.
Joyce MeyerMy faith was tested like Job. That’s the message I try to tell other people: just because you believe in God, serve God, feed the hungry, clothe the naked, people gotta realize, it don’t mean things not gonna happen to you.
Mr. TMake sure of your commitment to Jesus Christ, and seek to follow Him every day. Don’t be swayed by the false values and goals of this world, but put Christ and His will first in everything you do.
Billy GrahamIf I were a Roman Catholic, I should turn a heretic, in sheer desperation, because I would rather go to heaven than go to purgatory.
Charles SpurgeonSalvation and Christ’s love is a gift. You don’t earn it. You’ve got to receive that gift.
Joel OsteenThink of what you are, you Christians. You are God’s children; you are joint heirs with Christ. The ‚many mansions‘ are for you; the palms and harps of the glorified are for you. You have a share in all that Christ has and is and shall be.
Charles SpurgeonReligions get lost as people do.
Franz KafkaYes, 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 MeyerGod has entrusted me with myself.
EpictetusWhen we walk without the cross, when we build without the cross and when we proclaim Christ without the cross, we are not disciples of the Lord. We are worldly. We may be bishops, priests, cardinals, popes, all of this, but we are not disciples of the Lord.
Pope FrancisIf he have faith, the believer cannot be restrained. He betrays himself. He breaks out. He confesses and teaches this gospel to the people at the risk of life itself.
Martin LutherFor where God built a church, there the Devil would also build a chapel.
Martin LutherI don’t want to be called a point guard, but I can’t stop it.
LeBron JamesI believe that I have received Jesus Christ into my heart. I believe that he has covered all of my sins.
Billy GrahamObedience brings success; exact obedience brings miracles.
Russell M. NelsonI’m Mickey Mouse. They don’t know who’s inside the suit.
Keanu ReevesI am afraid that the schools will prove the very gates of hell, unless they diligently labor in explaining the Holy Scriptures and engraving them in the heart of the youth.
Martin LutherEach one of them is Jesus in disguise.
Mother TeresaSpiritual worldliness kills! It kills the soul! It kills the Church!
Pope FrancisGod helps those who help themselves.
Benjamin FranklinThere have been times that I’ve wept as I’ve gone from city to city and I’ve seen how far people have wandered from God.
Billy GrahamUntil you pray, God cannot work.
Joyce MeyerI would believe only in a God that knows how to Dance.
Friedrich NietzscheThis is my Bible. I am what it says I am. I have what it says I have. I can do what it says I can do.
Joel OsteenWe knew sports was important to us and our family, but there are priorities in life.Obviously, faith is foremost; how we did in school is important. If we didn’t handle that business then there were no privileges.
Stephen CurryFaith minus vulnerability and mystery equals extremism. If you’ve got all the answers, then don’t call what you do ‚faith.‘
Brene BrownThe other day the President said, I know you’ve had some rough times, and I want to do something that will show the nation what faith that I have in you, in your maturity and sense of responsibility. He paused, then said, would you like a puppy?
Dan QuayleWe can never make ourselves better by trying… praying more or longer, studying more of the Word, performing good works, etc. Don’t get me wrong… it’s not bad to do any of these things. In fact, it’s good. It’s just that doing them in God’s power is the only way those things will have any real and lasting effect in our lives.
Joyce MeyerIt doesn’t matter where you come from, what you have or don’t have, what you lack, or what you have too much of. But all you need to have is faith in God, an undying passion for what you do and what you choose to do in this life, and a relentless drive and the will to do whatever it takes to be successful in whatever you put your mind to.
Stephen CurryFaith: not wanting to know what is true.
Friedrich NietzscheI’m grateful for the opportunities God gave me to minister to people in high places; people in power have spiritual and personal needs like everyone else, and often they have no one to talk to.
Billy Graham
