Fyodor Dostoevsky

To love someone means to see him as God intended him.

Fyodor Dostoevsky

Beauty is mysterious as well as terrible. God and devil are fighting there, and the battlefield is the heart of man.

Garrison Kellior

God writes a lot of comedy... the trouble is, he's stuck with so many bad actors who don't know how to play funny.

Henry Drummond

Every character has an inward spring; let Christ be that spring. Every action has a keynote; let Christ be that note, to which your whole life is attuned.

Mother Theresa

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.

C. S. Lewis

A man can no more diminish God's glory by refusing to worship Him than a lunatic can put out the sun by scribbling the word, 'darkness' on the walls of his cell.

Mark Buchanan

Pride inverts the universe's deepest truth: that we need and serve God.

St. Augustine

The Holy Scriptures are our letters from home.

Corrie ten Boom

Never be afraid to trust an unknown future to a known God.

St. Augustine

You have made us for yourself and our hearts are restless until they find their rest in thee.

John Piper

God is most glorified in me when I am most satisfied in Him.

I believe in the sun even when it's not shining.
I believe in love even when I don't feel it.
I believe in God even when he is silent.
Healthy things grow.
Growing things change.
Changing things challenge.
Challenge forces us to trust God.
Trust leads to obedience.
Obedience makes us healthy.
Healthy things grow.

Victor Hugo

Have courage for the great sorrows of life and patience for the small ones. And when you have laboriously accomplished your daily task, go to sleep in peace. God is awake.
