We need to find God, and he cannot be found in noise and restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature – trees, flowers, grass- grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence… We need silence to be able to touch souls.

Be kind to each other, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, just as God through Christ has forgiven you.

For prayer is nothing else than being on terms of friendship with God.

God gives us relatives; thank God, we can choose our friends.

Many times, the decisions we make affect and hurt your closest friends and family the most. I have a lot of regrets in that regard. But God has forgiven me, which I am very thankful for. It has enabled me to forgive myself and move forward one day at a time.

For, after all, put it as we may to ourselves, we are all of us from birth to death guests at a table which we did not spread.

I will walk with God in the garden; I will walk with Him on the street; I will see Him in all that’s lovely; He’ll be with me when friends I greet. I’ll see Him in flowers and woodland, In the moon, the stars and the sun; I will hear His voice in the meadows When the work of each day is done.

My philosophy is: Life is hard, but God is good. Try not to confuse the two.

To know the disillusionments of life, and to come enchanted still. To break all its glass balls, and then to find that life did not lie in the glass balls. To have all my idols shattered, and then to find God in the earth at their base.

You ask: what is the meaning or purpose of life? I can only answer with another question: do you think we are wise enough to read God’s mind?

I will let God flow unimpeded through me. Unimpeded through me! A channel choked with a lifetime of debris, of wrecked and broken years, tangled hours and intentions. Not room for God, not room for me!

Life is God’s novel. Let him write it.

Every man’s life is a fairy tale written by God’s fingers.

By the grace of pataphysics, two telepathic letters from the Doctor to Lord Kelvin, and some geometrical equations, we are instructed that the exception is more reliable than the rule, imagination more accurate than fact, poetry more authentic than life, that Man is God, and God is the Tangential Point Between Zero and Infinity.

God never takes away something from your life without replacing it with something better.

The sun does not shine for a few trees, and flowers, but for the wide world’s joy. The lonely pine on the mountain-top waves its sombre boughs and cries, ‘Thou art my sun.’ And the little meadow violet lifts its cup of blue, and whispers with its perfumed breath, ‘Thou art my sun.’ And the grain in a thousand fields rustles in the wind, and makes answer, ‘Thou art my sun.’ So God sits effulgent in heaven, not for a favored few, but for the universe of life; and there is no creature so poor or so low that he may not look up with childish confidence and say, ‘My Father, Thou art mine..

God gave us the gift of life; it is up to us to give ourselves the gift of living well.

Life is a tapestry: We are the warp; angels, the weft; God, the weaver. Only the Weaver sees the whole design.

Throughout life people will make you mad, disrespect you and treat you bad. Let God deal with the things they do, cause hate in your heart will consume you too.

When I stand before God at the end of my life, I would hope that I would not have a single bit of talent left, and could say, ‘I used everything you gave me.

I feel I am lucky. I am grateful for this life that God has given me. I am happy, as I am getting to do work that I want to do and enjoy doing it.

God is love.

Today, I wandered through the fields where buttercups and daisies grew; My Spirit loved ones went with me, and God was there; all this I knew! I saw Him in the sunny sky and in the flowers at my feet; I heard His voice in songs of birds upon the wing, so pure and sweet!

God will never let us down because his love is unconditional.

It’s funny how, in this journey of life, even though we may begin at different times and places, our paths cross with others so that we may share our love, compassion, observations, and hope. This is a design of God that I appreciate and cherish.

There can be no doubt that in some respects we were surpassed in wisdom by devout men who lived when a small district, sparsely inhabited, seemed to be a world. They knew less of the machinery of the universe than we know, but they saw more clearly its motive power; and the love, the trust, the adoration which they displayed far surpassed in dignity the self-glorification of the modern scientist, who after a short life-time of learning and investigation, stands on his little ant-hill of knowledge, and looking round him exclaims, ‘I know the world, and I can see no God in it.’

Never trust anyone completely but God. Love people, but put your full trust only in God.

Could we with ink the ocean fill, Were every stalk on earth a quill, And were the skies of parchment made, And every man a scribe by trade, To tell the love of God alone Would drain the ocean dry; Nor could the scroll contain the whole, Though stretched from sky to sky.

Be strong, believe in freedom and in God, love yourself, understand your sexuality, have a sense of humor, masturbate, don’t judge people by their religion, color or sexual habits, love life and your family.

Don’t ever criticize yourself. Don’t go around all day long thinking, ‘I’m unattractive, I’m slow, I’m not as smart as my brother.’ God wasn’t having a bad day when he made you… If you don’t love yourself in the right way, you can’t love your neighbour. You can’t be as good as you are supposed to be.

Don’t worry about other people’s opinions of you. God never told you to impress people; only to love them.

Woman is a ray of God. She is not that earthly beloved: she is creative, not created.

God loves each of us as if there were only one of us.

The earth is not Beauty, Love, Divinity itself; it is but the shadow of God.

Wine is constant proof that God loves us and loves to see us happy.

Love God and He will enable you to love others even when they disappoint you.

May the light of God’s love shine upon you And guide you where ere you may be; Making lighter Earth’s burdens and sorrows, and keep your Soul joyous and free.

Outer fire we need to cook. Inner fire we need to liberate. God’s Fire we need to love.

God wants us to know that life is a series of beginnings, not endings. Just as graduations are not terminations, but commencements. Creation is an ongoing process, and when we create a perfect world where love and compassion are shared by all, suffering will cease.

But I always think that the best way to know God is to love many things.

God doesn’t give you the people you want, he gives you the people you need. To help you, to hurt you, to leave you, to love you and to make you the person you were meant to be.

God loves you more in a moment than anyone could in a lifetime.

I believe in the sun even if it isn’t shining. I believe in love even when I am alone. I believe in God even when He is silent.

After women, flowers are the most lovely thing God has given the world.

God’s dream is that you and I and all of us will realize that we are family, that we are made for togetherness, for goodness, and for compassion.

You don’t choose your family. They are God’s gift to you, as you are to them.

Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate.

And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them.

For your Maker is your husband, the LORD of hosts is his name; and the Holy One of Israel is your Redeemer, the God of the whole earth he is called.

Then the LORD God said, ‘It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a helper fit for him.’ … So the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon the man, and while he slept took one of his ribs and closed up its place with flesh. And the rib that the LORD God had taken from the man he made into a woman and brought her to the man.

In the same way, you husbands must give honor to your wives. Treat your wife with understanding as you live together. She may be weaker than you are, but she is your equal partner in God’s gift of new life. Treat her as you should so your prayers will not be hindered.

Let love and faithfulness never leave you; bind them around your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart. Then you will win favor and a good name in the sight of God and man.

No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us.

Bottom line: God will not allow any person to keep you from your destiny. They may be bigger, stronger, or more powerful, but God knows how to shift things around and get you to where you’re supposed to be.

Hunting God is a great adventure.

Every time you think you’re being rejected God’s actually redirecting you to something better. Ask him to give you the strength to press forward.

All are but parts of one stupendous Whole: Whose Body Nature is, and God the Soul.

Young man, young man, your arm’s too short to box with God.

How long, God, did you agonize, before the atoms became a tangibility? How long before the mist condensed and ran in rivers to the sea?

No woman wants to be in submission to a man who isn’t in submission to God!

God: a disease we imagine we are cured of because no one dies of it nowadays.

For where God built a church, there the Devil would also build a chapel.

Perhaps history is a thing that would stop happening if God held His breath, or could be imagined as turning away to think of something else.

Keep your head up. God gives his hardest battles to his strongest soldiers.

The Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive.

Judge not, and you will not be judged; condemn not, and you will not be condemned; forgive, and you will be forgiven.

The LORD is slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love, forgiving iniquity and transgression, but he will by no means clear the guilty.

Now if anyone has caused pain, he has caused it not to me, but in some measure

Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you.

If you are bathed in God’s Forgiveness-Light, then no dust of earth will be able to cling to you.
