God's will is not an itinerary but an attitude. ~Andrew Dhuse


Let God's promises shine on your problems. ~Corrie Ten Boom

By night, an atheist half believes in God. ~Edward Young, Night Thoughts


Experience has repeatedly confirmed that well-known maxim of Bacon's that "a little philosophy inclineth a man's mind to atheism, but depth in philosophy bringeth men's minds about to religion." At the same time, when Bacon penned that sage epigram... he forgot to add that the God to whom depth in philosophy brings back men's minds is far from being the same from whom a little philosophy estranges them. ~George Santayana


When I saw others straining toward God, I did not understand it, for though I may have had him less than they did, there was no one blocking the way between him and me, and I could reach his heart easily. It is up to him, after all, to have us, our part consists of almost solely in letting him grasp us. ~Rainer Maria Rilke


God's gifts put man's best dreams to shame. ~Elizabeth Barrett Browning


I know God will not give me anything I can't handle. I just wish that He didn't trust me so much. ~Mother Teresa


In many areas of understanding, none so much as in our understanding of God, we bump up against a simplicity so profound that we must assign complexities to it to comprehend it at all. It is mindful of how we paste decals to a sliding glass door to keep from bumping our nose against it. ~Robert Brault


I simply haven't the nerve to imagine a being, a force, a cause which keeps the planets revolving in their orbits, and then suddenly stops in order to give me a bicycle with three speeds. ~Quentin Crisp


Prayer is when you talk to God; meditation is when you listen to God. ~Diana Robinson


Weave in faith and God will find the thread. ~Author Unknown


They say that God is everywhere, and yet we always think of Him as somewhat of a recluse. ~Emily Dickinson


If you don't know what's meant by God, watch a forsythia branch or a lettuce leaf sprout. ~Martin H. Fischer


God: a disease we imagine we are cured of because no one dies of it nowadays. ~E.M. Cioran, The Trouble with Being Born, 1973


It is easy to understand God as long as you don't try to explain him. ~Joseph Joubert


Some of God's greatest gifts are unanswered prayers. ~Pat Alger, Larry Bastian, and Garth Brooks, "Unanswered Prayers"


Do you believe in God? Perhaps you aren't old enough. The reason old people believe in God is because they've given up believing in anything else, and one can't exist without faith in something.... God is a sort of burglar. As a young man you knock him down; as an old man, you try to conciliate him because he may knock you down. Moral: don't grow old. ~Herbert Beerbohm Tree, as quoted by Hesketh Pearson ("Sir Herbert Tree," Modern Men and Mummers)


Chance is perhaps the pseudonym of God when he did not want to sign. ~Anatole France, Le jardin d'Epicure
