Christ was crucified once, but his teachings suffer crucifixion every day at the hands of men of limited vision. Christ’s teachings cannot be understood just by reading the Bible…but by living and trying out in everyday life the principles taught in the book.
Where can we go to find God if we cannot see Him in our own hearts and in every living being.
-Swami Vivekananda
I have found God, but he is insufficient.
-Henry Miller
"Tropic of Cancer"
God is never tired of bringing the sun out every morning, taking it in the evenings and bringing out the moon.
-Jaachynma N. E. Agu
"The Prince and the Pauper"
The soul may ask God for anything, and never fail.
-Annie Dillard
"Teaching a Stone to Talk: Expeditions and Encounters"
Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.
The young do not need God, and the old cannot find Him.
-Mignon McLaughlin
"The Second Neurotic's Notebook"
God gave you a gift of 86,400 seconds today. Have you used one to say thank you?
You can safely assume you've created God in your own image when it turns out that God hates all the same people you do.
-Anne Lamott
Devotion to God’s Name is my lamp; In this lamp is poured the oil of suffering. The light of realisation burns away this oil…Vast loads of firewood are reduced to ashes by a tiny spark of fire.
