God

Non-violence requires a double faith, faith in God and also faith in man.
Christmas is the perfect time to celebrate the love of God and family and to create memories that will last forever. Jesus is God's perfect, indescribable gift. The amazing thing is that not only are we able to receive this gift, but we are able to share it with others on Christmas and every other day of the year.
The Resurrection miracle is nothing to you and me if it is only an event of eighteen centuries bygone. Unless we can live the immortal life — unless we can receive God to his own home in these hearts of ours — the texts are nothing to us unless these daily lives illustrate them.
When I started, I'd hear other people saying, 'God, she's so bizarre-looking', because I didn't look like the girl next door. But I was just normal. I was the girl next door. There were people in high fashion I could better relate to who were doing something more interesting and not talking this sort of rubbish.
I believe that life is a journey towards God, and that no one has the right to insist that you go a certain road.
Mother is the name for God in the lips and hearts of little children.
Look out into the universe and contemplate the glory of God. Observe the stars, millions of them, twinkling in the night sky, all with a message of unity, part of the very nature of God.
I believe that whatever comes at a particular time is a blessing from God.
God and Country are an unbeatable team; they break all records for oppression and bloodshed.
God wants us to know that life is a series of beginnings, not endings. Just as graduations are not terminations, but commencements. Creation is an ongoing process, and when we create a perfect world where love and compassion are shared by all, suffering will cease.
Every child comes with the message that God is not yet discouraged of man.
At Harvard I was taking an African-American studies class, and we were reading about the tragic mulatto. Invariably, the tragic mulatto can't fit in either world and flings herself off a bridge. So I'm reading, and I'm like, 'Oh, my God, I think I'm in literature', but my life was never like that.
I believe that God made this wonderful universe and all that exists.
From the solemn gloom of the temple children run out to sit in the dust, God watches them play and forgets the priest.
If you tell God no because He won't explain the reason He wants you to do something, you are actually hindering His blessing. But when you say yes to Him, all of heaven opens to pour out His goodness and reward your obedience. What matters more than material blessings are the things He is teaching us in our spirit.
On Sunday morning, I'm not nervous... I can't wait to tell what God wants me to say.
Someday, after mastering the winds, the waves, the tides and gravity, we shall harness for God the energies of love, and then, for a second time in the history of the world, man will have discovered fire.
If we ever forget that we are One Nation Under God, then we will be a nation gone under.
Outside the kingdom of the Lord there is no nation which is greater than any other. God and history will remember your judgment.
I pray to God I get inside a girl's head one day and see what in the WORLD they are thinking.
