God Quotes
-
God in His sovereign goodness often uses the painful and at times debilitating injury of a spear thrower to make us readier for His service. ... One thing you discover about spear throwers is that though it’s not necessary for them to be good, it’s essential for them to appear good.
Erwin W. Lutzer
-
We must have a spiritual rebirth. We must be born out of the belief in externalities into the belief of inner realities, out of the belief that we are separated from God, into the belief that we are part of a Unitary Wholeness.
Ernest Holmes
-
Sometimes the end God has in mind is to exercise our faith, so He brings us into straitened circumstances so that we might look up to Him and see His deliverance.
Jerry Bridges

The function of prayer is not to influence God, but rather to change the nature of the one who prays.
Soren Kierkegaard

Each time anyone comes in contact with us, they must become different and better people because of having met us. We must radiate God's love.

Albert Camus
-

Edwin Hubbell Chapin

There is so much deep contradiction in my soul. Such deep longing for God - so deep that it is painful - a suffering continual - and yet not wanted by God - repulsed - empty - no faith - no love - no zeal. Souls hold no attraction - Heaven means nothing - to me it looks like an empty place - the thought of it means nothing to me and yet this torturing longing for God. Pray for me please that I keep smiling at Him in spite of everything. For I am only His - so He has every right over me. I am perfectly happy to be nobody even to God. . . . Your devoted child in J.C. M. Teresa...

Can it then be doubted, but that God, who is infinitely fine Spirit, and withal intelligent, can make and change all species and kind of body as he pleaseth? But I dare not say, that this is the way by which God Almighty worketh, because it is past my apprehension: yet it serves very well to demonstrate, that the omnipotence of God implieth no contradiction.
Thomas Hobbes
-
Listen in silence because if your heart is full of other things you cannot hear the voice of God
Mother Teresa

All the gifts and talents we have are from God, but they are also for God...for His glory and for His pleasure. Don't waste them, make great use of them and make Him proud.
Amari Cooper

I just want to give my love to God.
