God Quotes
-
Because we cannot know what God is, but only what He is not, we cannot consider how He is but only how He is not.
Thomas Aquinas
-
The wish to talk to God is absurd. We cannot talk to one we cannot comprehend — and we cannot comprehend God; we can only believe in Him.
Immanuel Kant
-
The priest is not made. He must be born a priest; must inherit his office. I refer to the new birth-the birth of water and the Spirit. Thus all Christians must became priests, children of God and co-heirs with Christ the Most High Priest.
Martin Luther
-
Saints are the great teachers of the loving-kindness and fascination with God.
Evelyn Underhill
-
We cannot really know God if we do not pray.
Mother Teresa
-
Future contingents cannot be certain to us, because we know them as such. They can be certain only to God whose understanding is in eternity above time. Just as a man going along a road does not see those who come after him; but the man who sees the whole road from a height sees all those who are going along the road at the same time.
Thomas Aquinas
-
I’m letting God write my love story because once upon a time, I took control of it and it didn’t work well.
Nikki Gil
-
I think the first virtue is to restrain the tongue; he approaches nearest to gods who knows how to be silent, even though he is in the right.
Cato the Elder
-
The work that God does in us when we wait is usually more important than the thing for which we wait!
Erwin W. Lutzer
-
The mother eagle teaches her little ones to fly by making their nest so uncomfortable that they are forced to leave it and commit themselves to the unknown world of air outside. And just so does our God to us. He stirs up our comfortable nests, and pushes us over the edge of them, and we are forced to use our wings to save ourselves from fatal falling. Read your trials in this light, and see if you cannot begin to get a glimpse of their meaning. Your wings are being developed.
Hannah Whitall Smith
-
If God imagined you at birth, what makes you think He's stopped imagining you now.
Erwin McManus
-
All accusation is of the devil, no matter where it comes from. It is just as dangerous to accuse others as it is to give the accuser room in your own life. The accuser gives no hope. God does not accuse us, but He does give us promptings that bring light and hope.
Esther Smith
-
The Lord does not need your tithing, as far as He is concerned, but you need it for your growth, spiritually and temporally, that the windows of heaven may be opened and the Spirit of the living God given to you.
Heber J. Grant
-
God may delay, but He always comes.
Martin Luther
-
...the greatest thing each person can do is to give himself to God utterly and unconditionally - weaknesses, fears, and all. For God loves obedience more than good intentions or second-best offerings, which are all too often made under the guise of weakness.
Soren Kierkegaard
-
Ah! Justice of our God! Who else could stow Such travails new and pains as met my glance!
Dante Alighieri

But for me at any rate it was all part of dissolving the God trip or father-figure trip. Facing up to reality instead of always looking for some kind of heaven.
John Lennon The Beatles
-
Spring is the Period Express from God.
Emily Dickinson
-
God could not be everywhere, and therefore he made mothers.
Rudyard Kipling
-
I mean there is an assumption made that Islam is about submission, and I think that the submission that we have is to God.
Haleh Afshar
-
Naught but God Can satisfy the soul.
Philip James Bailey
-
I am a nuclear physicist by training and a deeply committed Christian. I don't have any doubt in my own mind about God who created the entire universe. But I don't adhere to passages that so and so was created 4,000 years before Christ, and things of that kind.
Jimmy Carter
-
Really, given that God does judge nations, it's amazing that abortion has run as far and foully as it has without what I would consider to be a greater imposition of judgment on this country. Who knows what the future holds?
Ken Cuccinelli
-
One of the gravest perils which besets the ministry is a restless scattering of energies over an amazing multiplicity of interests which leaves no margin of time and of strength for receptive and absorbing communion with God.
Bonar Law
