The devotee engages to the best of his ability into the play of life, fulfilling his role on this earth as student, employee, husband, wife, parent, neighbor, and community servant. But at the heart of the devotee is a burning desire for the Lord.
I think the reason we sometimes have the false sense that God is so far away is because that is where we have put him. We have kept him at a distance, and then when we are in need and call on him in prayer, we wonder where he is. He is exactly where we left him.
-Ravi Zacharias
"Has Christianity Failed You?"
The cycle of God, the good, is broken by a single act of negativity. The cycle of negativity is stopped by choosing the good.
Honour your father and your mother, that your days may be long in the land which the Lord your God gives you.
When a man in the process of dreaming becomes conscious that he is dreaming, he is no longer identified with the phenomena; he is not affected exultantly or dolefully. God consciously dreams His cosmic play and is unaffected by its dualities.
People see God every day, they just don't recognize him.
-Pearl Bailey
Act always from a sense of common humanity, and let God judge if it be charity.
God is dead, atleast in the sense that neither can he stop you from achieving
what you are capable of, nor can he give you anything more than what you
deserve.
-Deep Trivedi
If there is a God, atheism must seem to Him as less of an insult than religion.
-Edmond De Goncourt
What comes into our minds when we think about God is the most important thing about us.
-A. W. Tozer
