Jesus Quotes
-
It’s hard to remember that Jesus did not come to make us safe, but rather to make us disciples, citizens of God’s new age, a kingdom of surprise.
Stanley Hauerwas -
When I say I trust Jesus, that is what I mean: I trust that the way of life leads through perishability, not around it.
Barbara Brown Taylor
-
Pray for me that I not loosen my grip on the hands of Jesus even under the guise of ministering to the poor.
Mother Teresa -
I have to ask myself how I can possibly expect to know Jesus as he would want to be known if my life remains unscathed by trouble and grief. How can I hope to grasp anything of God's heart for this broken planet if I never weep because its brokenness touches me and breaks my heart? How can I reflect his image if I never share in his sufferings? And how will any of us ever learn to treasure his hesed and grace if we never experience phases where these blessings seem absent?
Carolyn Custis James -
I don't think you can love Jesus without loving His wife.
Ed Stetzer -
I know I would not be able to work one week if it were not for that continual force coming from Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament.
Mother Teresa -
We should be servants of Jesus not masters of people

Jesus was a teacher, in a way. I mean, essentially, Jesus was a teacher. He was teaching people. He was helping them see themselves for what they were. He was helping them see their power, their strength, their beauty, what they're capable of.

Francis Chan -
It is in getting to know my Bible that I get to know Jesus.
Alistair Begg -
We were never created to settle for mere religion. Jesus did not die so that we could have a religious belief system - but rather a life-giving relationship with our Father.
Christine Caine -

Bryan Kest -
However, if we want to rediscover the radical message of Jesus, we must rediscover the radical practice of living in community with others. Because that’s what he did.
Benjamin L. Corey -
Often you can see power lines running alongside the street. Unless current is flowing through them, there is no light. The power line is you and I! The current is God! We have the power to allow the current to flow through us and thus to generate the light of the world: JESUS - or to refuse to be used and, thus, allow the darkness to spread.
Mother Teresa
-
Do you really know the living Jesus - not from books but from being with Him in your heart? Have you heard the loving words He speaks to you?... The devil may try to use the hurts of life, and sometimes our own mistakes - to make you feel it is impossible that Jesus really loves you, is really cleaving to you. This is a danger for all of us. And so sad, because it is completely the opposite of what Jesus is really wanting, waiting to tell you. Not only that He loves you, but even more - He longs for you.
Mother Teresa -
A homeless man standing at the off-ramp: the question in these moments isn't whether Jesus is in Him, but in me.
Mark Hart Crowded House -
Love, no matter how you come at it, is a huge risk. It makes it easier for me to remember that God will never reject me because I am not good enough and that any community that has His heart will embrace me as I am. Jesus invites us into a community where imperfect people can find acceptance, love, forgiveness, and a new beginning.
Erwin McManus -
To be alone with Jesus in adoration and intimate union with Him is the Greatest Gift of Love - the tender love of Our Father in Heaven.
Mother Teresa -
Spending time in the presence of Jesus is a non-negotiable. Don't wait until you have time to do it. MAKE time.
Christine Caine -
Put yourself completely under the influence of Jesus, so that he may think his thoughts in your mind, do his work through your hands, for you will be all-powerful with him to strengthen you.
Mother Teresa
-
All we do our prayers our work our suffering is for Jesus. Our life has no other reason or motivation.
Mother Teresa -
Life is about Jesus. We are not here to tell our story, but His.
Francis Chan -
I don't believe in Jesus or God. But I do believe that fundamentalists in religion or anything else are bad, and that they have more hate than love.
Sarah Silverman -
The joy of Jesus will be my strength - it will be in my heart. Every person I meet will see it in my work; my walk, my prayer - in everything.
Mother Teresa
