Any refuge other than God is probably something that I should seek refuge from rather than seek refuge in.
When you put God in charge of your life, no one can take you out of line.
When God anoints you, people will see it. When He appoints you, others will know it and when He uplifts you, the world will hear it. Because He is able to do what is unheard of.
When God anoints you, surely you will be appointed for massive accomplishments.
I have seen a world within a world within a world but never a world ending without another world
God will restore everything that was stolen from your storeroom of blessings. Get ready to receive in due time.
When God blesses you, the Words you speak, will be blessed. The land you walk in will be blessed. Everything you do, will be abundantly blessed.
God is wonderful. He has done so many wonders through His work of art.
God has favoured His workmanship and made it so wonderful.
Although we are made in the image of God, we cannot substitute who He is.
When you are favoured by God, nothing will make you fail. Even when there is failure written all over, you will gracefully succeed.
When God favours you, no amount of failure can bring you down.
But we live in a world that has lost its appreciation for small things. We live in a world that wants things bigger and bigger. We want to supersize our fries, sodas, and church buildings. But amid all the supersizing, many of us feel God doing something new, something small and subtle. This thing Jesus called the kingdom of God is emerging across the globe in the most unexpected places, a gentle whisper amid the chaos.
If our effort to know God more clearly is not an effort to love him more dearly, it will be fatal.
I felt so thirsty for God, so embarrassed by Christianity, and so ready for something more.
If you have the gift of frustration and the deep sense that the world is a mess, thank God for that; not everyone has that gift of vision.
Over and over, the dying and the lepers would whisper the mystical word namaste in my ear. We really don’t have a word like it in English (or even much of a Western conception of it). They explained to me that namaste means “I honor the Holy One who lives in you.” I knew I could see God in their eyes. Was it possible that I was becoming a Christian, that in my eyes they could catch a glimpse of the image of my Lover?
You guys are all into that born again thing, which is great. We do need to be born again, since Jesus said that to a guy named Nicodemus. But if you tell me I have to be born again to enter the kingdom of God, I can tell you that you have to sell everything you have and give it to the poor, because Jesus said that to one guy too…[And he paused in the awkward silence.] But I guess that’s why God invented highlighters, so we can highlight the parts we like and ignore the rest.
God is not like people
Happiness lies in knowing God, the Heavenly Father.
