God Quotes
-
Why did God make woman so beautiful and man with such a loving heart?
Walker Percy
-
When we submit our lives to what we read in scripture, we find that we are not being led to see God in our stories but our stories in God's. God is the larger context and plot in which our stories find themselves.
Eugene H. Peterson
-
There can be in the eyes of God no distinction between man and man, even as there is no distinction between animal and animal.
Mahatma Gandhi
-
God who gives the wound gives the salve.
Miguel de Cervantes
-
Creation is the result, but not the beginning of love. Redemption is the manifestation of God as love, and therefore points to a love of absolute necessity and eternity. God is love, not God became love... It is this love that we are planted by the incarnation, death, and resurrection of Jesus.
Adolph Saphir
-
I don't know what kind of God the rest of y'all are serving, but the God I serve says, 'Mary, you need to be the hottest thing this year, and I'm gonna make sure you're doing that.'
Mary J. Blige

God never did make a more calm, quiet, innocent recreation than angling.
Izaak Walton
-
The god of the world is the gold and the silver. The world worships this god. It is all-powerful to them, though they might not be willing to acknowledge it. Now it is designed, in the providence of God, that the Latter-day Saints should show whether they have so far advanced in the knowledge, in the wisdom and in the power of God that they cannot be overcome by the god of the world. We must come to that point.
Lorenzo Snow
-
God, it would never go away, this anger, this rage that was like the ceaseless movement of the spring winds through the desert, this knot in his guts, this splinter in his heart that shot a pain through him that eventually found its way into his lungs, then out of his mouth and into the open air, the sound making the whole world turn away from him. It would never go away, never, never, and there would never be any peace. Maybe he had it all wrong, maybe he wasn't a victim at all, not at all, because he had decided that this was the only thing that would ever be truly his, and so he clung to it, would cling to it forever.
Benjamin Alire Saenz
-
There's Pele the man, and then Pele the player. And to play like Pele is to play like God.
Eusebio
-
Blue skies or dark night, one truth still holds: God has you. And this is the promise He has made to you: He will never let you go.
Angela Thomas

God in his wisdom, to make and keep us humble and to teach us to walk by faith, has hidden from us almost everything that we should like to know about the providential purposes which he is working out in the churches and in our own lives.
J. I. Packer
-
I think it is wrong to expect certainties in this world, where all else but God that is Truth is an uncertainty. All that appears and happens about and around us is uncertain, transient. But there is a Supreme Being hidden therein as a Certainty, and one would be blessed if one could catch a glimpse of that Certainty and hitch one's waggon to it. The quest for that Truth is the summum bonum of life.
Mahatma Gandhi
-
Our own consciousness is incapable of having produce the universe. God, therefore, exists. That is to say, there is no reason for not applying the term God, Theos, to the intimate essence.
Ezra Pound
-
It seems that God took away the minds of poets that they might better express His.
Socrates
-
Why stand we here trembling around, calling on God for help, and not ourselves, in whom God dwells?
William Blake
-
I think the best way to view the Gospels is to view them as a magnificent portrait being painted by Jewish artists to try to capture the essence of a God experience that they believe they had with Jesus of Nazareth.
John Shelby Spong
-
The wailing of broken hearts is the doorway to God.
Rumi
-
To the eye of God there are no numbers: seeing all things at one time, he counts nothing.
Etienne Bonnot de Condillac
-
No circumstance, person, or difficulty can stop the plans and the promises of God.
David Jeremiah
-
God has laid upon us many severe trials in this world, but He has created labour for us, and all is compensated. Thanks to labour, the bitterest tears are dried; a serious consoler, it always promises less than it bestows; a pleasure unparalleled, it is still the salt of other pleasures. Everything abandons you -- gaiety, wit, love -- labour alone is always present.
Ernest Legouve
