Faith Quotes
-
And for all this, nature is never spent; There lives the dearest freshness deep down things; And though the last lights off the black West went Oh, morning, at the brown brink eastward, springs— Because the Holy Ghost over the bent World broods with warm breast and with ah! bright wings.
Gerard Manley Hopkins
-
The mind is a magnet and we attract that with which we identify the self. In order to get the most out of life we must learn consciously to change many of our habitual thought patterns. This is not easy, for our old thought patterns cling to us with great tenacity, but, being thought patterns, they can be reversed. If you are filled with fear, refill yourself with faith, for faith always overcomes fear.
Ernest Holmes
-
I believe that we are saved by the grace of God because he loves us provided that we have faith in Jesus Christ.
Jimmy Carter
-
Faith grows with exercise. You see God work miracles.
Bill Bright
-
In ourselves, we are sinners, and yet through faith we are righteous by the imputation of God. For we trust him who promises to deliver us, and in the meantime struggle so that sin may not overwhelm us, but that we may stand up to it until he finally take it away from us.
Martin Luther
-
Faith is tossed about by various doubts, so that the minds of the godly are rarely at peace.
John Calvin
-
Of course, no religious test for the presidency - every faith adds to our national character.
Benjamin Carson
-
In all things, therefore, where we have clear evidence from our ideas, and those principles of knowledge I have above mentioned, reason is the proper judge; and revelation, though it may, in consenting with it, confirm its dictates, yet cannot in such cases invalidate its decrees: nor can we be obliged, where we have the clear and evident sentience of reason, to quit it for the contrary opinion, under a pretence that it is matter of faith: which can have no authority against the plain and clear dictates of reason.
John Locke
Nazareth
-
Have faith in your faith-and doubt your doubts.
Robert H. Schuller
-
To know a person's religion we need not listen to his profession of faith but must find his brand of intolerance.
Eric Hoffer
-
In the matter of faith, we have the added weight of hope to that of reason in the convictions which we sustain relating to a future state.
Edwin Hubbell Chapin
-
Faith doesn't make sense. It makes miracles.
Tony Evans
-
Faith is more important to me than life itself because without it there would be no fullness of life.
Mother Teresa
-
But I should caution that if you seek to plot out all your moves before you make them—if you put your faith in slow, deliberative planning in the hopes it will spare you failure down the line—well, you’re deluding yourself. For one thing, it’s easier to plan derivative work—things that copy or repeat something already out there. So if your primary goal is to have a fully worked out, set-in-stone plan, you are only upping your chances of being unoriginal.
Edwin Catmull
-
If I have all the faith so as to move mountains,but do not have love,then I an nothing.
Elizabeth Sims
-
An unexamined life is not worth living, and an unexamined faith is not worth holding.
Ergun Caner
-
The chief difficulty is that God demands of us that we live by faith: faith in God, God's sovereignty over the future, God's sufficiency for the present; while, on the other hand, the various other gods whom we can serve appeal to us in terms of the things which we can see and the forces which we can calculate. The choice between the life of faith and the life of sight is a choice between a God whom only faith can apprehend and gods whom one has only to see to understand.
Daniel Thambyrajah Niles
-
Jesus pioneers internally and outworks externally. The Bible describes him as the pioneer of our salvation, the pioneer of our faith. And I would describe him as the pioneer of our hearts. Salvation is something that Christ does in our heart that changes our eternal destiny. It changes your reason for being, it changes your sense of purpose, it changes the way you live, it changes the reason for our gifts and talents, it changes our families and our marriages. Ultimately salvation that starts in the heart has an impact on generations to come. What is it that is in your heart?
Brian Houston
