I believe in something. But I don't believe that anything can hold a grudge for long enough to condemn its creation to eternal punishment. Nobody can hold a grudge that long even God.
God has been very good to me for I never dwell upon anything wrong which a person has done so as to remember it afterwards. If I do remember it I always see some other virtue in that person.
I will govern my life and thoughts as if the whole world were to see the one and read the other for what does it signify to make anything a secret to my neighbor when to God who is the searcher of our hearts all our privacies are open?
One of the peculiar sins of the twentieth century which we've developed to a very high level is the sin of credulity. It has been said that when human beings stop believing in God they believe in nothing. The truth is much worse: they believe in anything.
Imagination is the voice of daring. If there is anything Godlike about God it is that. He dared to imagine everything.
What God intended for you goes far beyond anything you can imagine.
As a child of God I am greater than anything that can happen to me.
I cannot and will not recant anything for to go against conscience is neither right nor safe. Here I stand I can do no other so help me God. Amen.
I think that anything that begins to give people a sense of their own worth and dignity is God.
But I know God has big stuff planned that ultimately doesn't have anything to do with me.
There is so much temptation to hold on to my career even more now. To try to micromanage and dictate every little aspect. But that's not how I want to do things anymore. I'm thinking about how can I trust God more. How can I surrender more? How can I bring him more glory? It's a fight. But it's one I'm going to keep fighting.
