It's so tempting to try to do it all, so as not to miss out. But to do all of those 'good things' means you'll do none of them well.
Shaunti Feldhahn
All of us fail, but this doesn't mean we are failures.
Robert McGee
Hurry means that we gather impressions but have no experiences, that we collect acquaintances but make no friends, that we attend meetings but experience no encounter. We must recover eternity if we are to find time, and eternity is what Jesus came to restore. For without it, there can be no charity.
D.T. Niles
Fear cannot stay in the same house as Jesus Christ.
Jack Coe
To me there is no more tragic sight than the average missionary. We have given so much, yet not the one thing that counts; we aspire so high, and fall so low; we suffer so much, but so seldom with Christ; we have done so much and so little will remain; we have known Christ in part, and have so effectively barricaded our hearts against His mighty love, which surely He must yearn to give His disciples above all people.
Amy Wilson-Carmichael
This is the power of myth: that we can experience invisible spiritual realities and truths greater than visible, material things in story form.
John Granger
With love that knew no fear, the Singer caught his torment, wrapped it all in song and gave it back to him as peace.
Calvin Miller
When ours are interrupted, his are not. His plans are proceeding exactly as scheduled, moving us always (including those minutes or hours or years which seem most useless or wasted or unendurable).
Elisabeth Elliot
For God to prove himself on demand, physically, would be a grave disappointment, and the strongest Christians should be considerably grateful that he chooses not to do so. The skeptic endlessly demands proof, yet God refuses to insult the true intelligence of man, the '6th sense', the chief quality, the acumen which distinguishes man from the rest of creation, faith.
Criss Jami
You could have arrived atop a wildcat and no one would have said a word. They will adore you.
Deeanne Gist
All life is bound to a simple truth... that time goes on, that in each person's life begins a tale, a tale that will either end in memory or in legend.
M.J. Chrisman
because God has spoken, and everything else is commentary.
Rob Bell
Faith doesn't rely on odds or statistical data. God only requires that we have faith; the rest is up to him.
Nancy Stephan
As Christians, we are not to beg for signs and wonders but, to command them all the time and not some of the time.
Ifeanyi Enoch Onuoha
Unless we have something worth dying for, Atretes, we've nothing worth living for.
Francine Rivers
It is the great business of every Christian to save souls. People complain that they do not know how to take hold of this matter. Why, the reason is plain enough; they have never studied it. They have never taken the proper pains to qualify themselves for the work. If you do not make it a matter of study, how you may successfully act in building up the kingdom of Christ, you are acting a very wicked and absurd part as a Christian.
Charles Finney
Jesus' miracles provide us with a sample of the meaning of redemption: a freeing of creation from the shackles of sin and evil and a reinstatement of creaturely living as intended by God.
Randy Alcorn
Life in Christ is like traveling on a metro link train, with a predetermined destination. You are not the driver, Jesus is, and God provided the route on this one time trip. He plotted everything, the date and the time of your travel and arrival. There will be stops and delays along the way, but remember this, at the bottom of a traffic light is always a green light.
Rolly Lavapie
One possibility is: God is nothing but the power of the universe to organize itself.
Lee Smolin
We desire to possess a beauty that is worth pursuing, worth fighting for, a beauty that is core to who we truly are. We want beauty that can be seen; beauty that can be felt; beauty that affects others; a beauty all our own to unveil.
