A heartless Christian must be a terrible grief to our Lord. ~ Oswald Chambers
Christian Grief quotes by Oswald Chambers
To cry is human, but to lament is Christian. ~ Mark Vroegop
Christian Grief quotes by Mark Vroegop
If you have to choose between terrible grief and terrible guilt, I think grief is easier, in the end. ~ Sharon Bolton
Christian Grief quotes by Sharon Bolton
I feel now, that Arabia could easily be evangelized within the next thirty years if it were not for the wicked selfishness of Christians. ~ Samuel Marinus Zwemer
Christian Grief quotes by Samuel Marinus Zwemer
This Sunday School has been of help to me, greater perhaps than any other force in my Christian life, and I can ask no better things for you than that you, and all that shall come after you in this great band of workers for Christ, shall receive the same measure of blessedness which I have been permitted to have. ~ John D. Rockefeller
Christian Grief quotes by John D. Rockefeller
I'm in self-imposed exile, cradled between split branches, in my favorite tree in the woods behind school. I've been coming here every day at lunch, hiding out until the bell rings, whittling words into the branches with my pen, allowing my heart to break in private. ~ Jandy Nelson
Christian Grief quotes by Jandy Nelson
So you see, the grief doesn't get smaller - life just gets bigger ~ Lucie Brownlee
Christian Grief quotes by Lucie Brownlee
A normal human being does not want the Kingdom of Heaven: he wants life on earth to continue. This is not solely because he is "weak," "sinful" and anxious for a "good time." Most people get a fair amount of fun out of their lives, but on balance life is suffering, and only the very young or the very foolish imagine otherwise. Ultimately it is the Christian attitude which is self-interested and hedonistic, since the aim is always to get away from the painful struggle of earthly life and find eternal peace in some kind of Heaven or Nirvana. The humanist attitude is that the struggle must continue and that death is the price of life. ~ George Orwell
Christian Grief quotes by George Orwell
The spirituality of the soul is awakening of spirit. ~ Lailah Gifty Akita
Christian Grief quotes by Lailah Gifty Akita
Well, yes: people write poems when they are in love, but a wise man will not print them. ~ Hans Christian Andersen
Christian Grief quotes by Hans Christian Andersen
The greatest barrier I have met is the almost total absence from the minds of my audience of any sense of sin... The early Christian preachers could assume in their hearers, whether Jews, Metuentes, or Pagans, a sense of guilt. (That this was common among Pagans is shown by the fact that both Epicureanism and the mystery religions both claimed, though in different ways, to assuage it.) Thus the Christian message was in those days unmistakably the Evangelium, the Good News. It promised healing to those who knew they were sick. We have to convince our hearers of the unwelcome diagnosis before we can expect them to welcome the news of the remedy.

The ancient man approached God (or even the gods) as the accused person approaches his judge. For the modern man, the roles are quite reversed. He is the judge: God is in the dock. He is quite a kindly judge; if God should have a reasonable defense for being the god who permits war, poverty, and disease, he is ready to listen to it. The trial may even end in God's acquittal. But the important thing is that man is on the bench and God is in the dock. ~ C.S. Lewis
Christian Grief quotes by C.S. Lewis
As long as I see anything to be done for God, life is worth having; but O how vain and unworthy it is to live for any lower end! ~ David Brainerd
Christian Grief quotes by David Brainerd
There exist a divine soul, spirit and strength. ~ Lailah Gifty Akita
Christian Grief quotes by Lailah Gifty Akita
Dozens of members of Congress will be retiring next month, and some should be missed. But there is only one Tom Coburn, the Oklahoma senator the Christian Science Monitor has dubbed 'a rabble-rousing statesman.' ~ John Fund
Christian Grief quotes by John Fund
Holiness purifies our lives. ~ Lailah Gifty Akita
Christian Grief quotes by Lailah Gifty Akita
Ancient eyes had stared at me, filled with ancient grief. And something more. Something so alien and unexpected that I'd almost burst into tears. I'd seen many things in his eyes in the time that I'd known him: lust, amusement, sympathy, mockery, caution, fury. But I had never seen this.
Hope. Jericho Barrons had hope, and I was the reason for it.
I would never forget his smile. It had illuminated him from the inside out. ~ Karen Marie Moning
Christian Grief quotes by Karen Marie Moning
Killing me will not end your grief. It will only create more of it. ~ Elizabeth Carlton
Christian Grief quotes by Elizabeth Carlton
By the grace of God you are what you are; glory in your selfhood, accept yourself and go on from there. ~ Wilferd Peterson
Christian Grief quotes by Wilferd Peterson
Trials are used by God to teach you dependence on His grace rather than on your strength. ~ Jim George
Christian Grief quotes by Jim George
We have to make myths of our lives, the point being that if we do, then every grief or inexplicable seizure by weather, woe, or work can-if we discipline ourselves and think hard enough-be turned to account, be made to yield further insight into what it is to be alive, to be a human being. ~ May Sarton
Christian Grief quotes by May Sarton
We will never be cleansed until we confess we are dirty. And we will never be able to wash the feet of those who have hurt us until we allow Jesus, the one we have hurt, to wash ours. ~ Max Lucado
Christian Grief quotes by Max Lucado
We learn to restrain ourselves as we get older. We keep apart when we have quarrelled, express ourselves in well-bred phrases, and in this way preserve a dignified alienation, showing much firmness on one side, and swallowing much grief on the other. We no longer approximate in our behaviour to the mere impulsiveness of the lower animals, but conduct ourselves in every respect like members of a highly civilised society. ~ George Eliot
Christian Grief quotes by George Eliot
When you faithfully follow the three duties of a Christian, God rewards you openly. ~ Jentezen Franklin
Christian Grief quotes by Jentezen Franklin
I feel like the universe cheated Cal and cheated us along with him," I say now.
Before Cal died, Mum would have explained calmly and logically that the universe was all existing matter and space- 10 billion light-years in diameter, consisting of galaxies and solar systems, stars, and the planets. All of which simply do not have the capacity to cheat a person of anything.
Tonight she lights another cigarette. "It did," she says, and blows smoke at the stars. ~ Cath Crowley
Christian Grief quotes by Cath Crowley
I've read science fiction and fantasy all my life – though when you're a child, they just call that "books." The first book I ever read on my own was The Neverending Story. I studied classics at university, and in ancient literature, monsters, witches, magic, curses, and impossible machines aren't genre, they're just Tuesday afternoon. I had no idea that I was writing fantasy at first, because I was so saturated in Greek literature that it never occurred to me that my talking animals and sentient mazes were anything but realism. Our instinct toward folklore and magical stories, parables and imagining the future, are as much a part of the human experiences as divorce, grief, falling in love, politics, or raising children. I've always read fantastic literature, because it's always seemed truest to me. It makes the metaphorical literal and is all the more powerful for that immediacy and directness. I love genre fiction for the infinite expanse of stories it can tell – and it's been my constant companion since I was a very small child. ~ Catherynne M. Valente
Christian Grief quotes by Catherynne M. Valente
While Kalila didn't quite know what she wanted, she knew what she didn't want. She didn't want to live a charade. She didn't want a marriage of convenience where you were together but alone. ~ Christian F. Burton
Christian Grief quotes by Christian F. Burton
IF WE AND OUR POSTERITY SHALL BE TRUE TO THE CHRISTIAN RELIGION, IF WE AND THEY SHALL LIVE ALWAYS IN THE FEAR OF GOD AND SHALL RESPECT HIS COMMANDMENTS, IF WE AND THEY SHALL MAINTAIN JUST MORAL SENTIMENTS AND SUCH CONSCIENTIOUS CONVICTIONS OF DUTY AS SHALL CONTROL THE HEART AND LIFE, WE MAY HAVE THE HIGHEST HOPES OF THE FUTURE FORTUNES OF OUR COUNTRY. OUR COUNTRY WILL GO ON PROSPERING. ~ Daniel Webster
Christian Grief quotes by Daniel Webster
Ministry's not an option for a Christian; it's a privilege. ~ Lori Hatcher
Christian Grief quotes by Lori Hatcher
No, Marla says. No, she wants it all. The cancers, the parasites. Marla's eyes narrow. She never dreamed she could feel so marvelous. She actually felt alive. Her skin was clearing up. All her life, she never saw a dead person. There was no real sense of life because she had nothing to contrast it with. Oh, but now there was dying and death and loss and grief. Weeping and shuddering, terror and remorse. Now that she knows where we're all going, Marla feels every moment of her life. ~ Chuck Palahniuk
Christian Grief quotes by Chuck Palahniuk
To live always in the Secret Places of the Most High, To think only those thoughts that are inspired from above, To do all things in the conviction that God is with us, To give the best to all the world with no thought of reward, To leave all recompense to Him who doeth all things well, To love everybody as God loves us, and be Kind as He is Kind, To ask God for everything and in faith expect everything, To live in perpetual gratitude to Him who gives everything, To love God so much that we can inwardly feel that My Father and I are one, This is the prayer without ceasing, the true worship of the soul. ~ Christian D. Larson
Christian Grief quotes by Christian D. Larson
It is only as a unity in diversity that the Christian community will become an inviting community in a society which is otherwise pretty uniform. Creation is motley and diverse, and the new creation even more so. ~ Jurgen Moltmann
Christian Grief quotes by Jurgen Moltmann
Hans Christian Andersen said 'Every man's life is a fairy tale written by God's fingers.' Maybe he was right, maybe not. Either way, just remember: enchanting as they may be, in fairytales the forests are always dark. ~ Greg F. Gifune
Christian Grief quotes by Greg F. Gifune
Inertia: Inertia means giving in to old habits and conditioning. Whatever the cause of depression, anxiety, trauma, insecurity, or grief, these states linger if you take a passive attitude. "That's just how things are" is the motto of inertia. Become aware of how doing nothing is actually the way you've trained yourself to keep things the same. Do you sit and dwell on your suffering? Do you reject helpful advice before even considering it? Do you know the difference between griping and genuinely airing your feelings with the intention of healing them? Examine the routine of your suffering and break out of it. ~ Deepak Chopra
Christian Grief quotes by Deepak Chopra
Should a conflict arise between the witness of the Holy Spirit to the fundamental truth of the Christian faith and beliefs based on argument and evidence then it is the former which must take precedence over the latter. ~ William Lane Craig
Christian Grief quotes by William Lane Craig
I have heard stories from the depths of human lives where men and women were wrestling with the elemental problems of misery and sin--stories that put upon a man's heart a burden of vicarious sorrow, even though he does but listen to them. Here was real human need crying out after the living God revealed in Christ. Consider all the multitudes of men who so need God, and then think of Christian churches making of themselves a cockpit of controversy when there is not a single thing at stake in the business. So much of it does not matter! And there is one thing that does matter--more than anything else in all the world--that men in their personal lives and in their social relationships should know Jesus Christ. ~ Harry Emerson Fosdick
Christian Grief quotes by Harry Emerson Fosdick
Two things make a relationship providential: when we hear from God through someone and when we see God in someone. ~ Andy Stanley
Christian Grief quotes by Andy Stanley
I've always considered Christ to be one of the greatest revolutionaries in the history of humanity. ~ Fidel Castro
Christian Grief quotes by Fidel Castro
Christians, instead of arming themselves with swords, extend their hands in prayer. ~ Athanasius Of Alexandria
Christian Grief quotes by Athanasius Of Alexandria
Nothing is easier than to give Christian asceticism a Socialist tinge. ~ Karl Marx
Christian Grief quotes by Karl Marx
Prayer for revival will prevail when it is accompanied by radical amendment of life; not before. All-night prayer meetings that are not preceded by practical repentance may actually be displeasing to God. "To obey is better than sacrifice." We must return to New Testament Christianity, not in creed only but in complete manner of life as well. Separation, obedience, humility, simplicity, gravity, self-control, modesty, cross-bearing: these all must again be made a living part of the total Christian concept and be carried out in everyday conduct. We ~ A.W. Tozer
Christian Grief quotes by A.W. Tozer
I see the beauty
All around me I see it
The polished faces ~ Nicole Eskuri
Christian Grief quotes by Nicole Eskuri
Christian, be a Christian: live by faith; walk by the Spirit; serve in the strength that God supplies. ~ John Piper
Christian Grief quotes by John Piper
Everything in his life had come down to the sensation of her fingers against his. The person he was, the history he carried within himself, every joy and grief he had ever experienced, slipped way like an irrelevant garment. He was nothing but skin, speaking to another skin, and between the skins there was no need to find any words. ~ Kate Grenville
Christian Grief quotes by Kate Grenville
The catch is that for most people the New Testament is taken as proof for the conventional picture of Christian origins, and the conventional picture is taken as proof for the way in which the New Testament was written. . . . For this reason the New Testament is commonly viewed and treated as a charter document that came into being much like the Constitution of the United States. According to this view, the authors of the New Testament were all present at the historic beginnings of the new religion and collectively wrote their gospels and letters for the purpose of founding the Christian church that Jesus came to inaugurate. Unfortunately for this view, that is not the way it happened. ~ Burton L. Mack
Christian Grief quotes by Burton L. Mack
Well, Anastasia, my new motto is, 'If you can't beat'em, join'em ~ E.L. James
Christian Grief quotes by E.L. James
Mary properly bore the name of Virgin, and possessed to the full all the attributes of purity. She was a virgin in both body and soul, and kept all the powers of her soul and her bodily senses far above any defilement. This she did authoritatively, steadfastly, decisively and altogether inviolably at all times, as a closed gate preserves the treasure within, and a sealed book keeps hidden from sight what is written inside. The Scriptures say of her, 'This is the sealed book' (cf. Rev. 5:1-6:1; Dan. 12:4) and 'this gate shall be shut, and no man shall enter by it' (Ezek. 44:2). ~ Gregory Palamas
Christian Grief quotes by Gregory Palamas
The loss of one's self is the hardest to bear ~ S.L. Northey
