The more you rely on intellectual and philosophical concepts of God, the more difficult it becomes to simply experience and enjoy the wonder of God. ~ Mac MacKenzie
Experiencing God quotes by Mac MacKenzie
It is our nature to be strong and independent. Yet, there is no room for the ego in suffering. This stripping of my ego opens the doors to authentic relating to others. As I am drawn closer to others, I am experiencing God in the here and now. ~ Timothy J. Keller
Experiencing God quotes by Timothy J. Keller
We try to evade the question of existence with property, prestige, power, possession, production, fun, and, ultimately, by trying to forget that we- that I- exist. No matter how much he thinks of God or goes to church, or how much he believes in religious ideas , if he, the whole man, is deaf to the question of existence, if he does not have an answer to it, he is marking time, and he lives and dies like one of the million things he produces. He thinks of God, instead of experiencing God. ~ Erich Fromm
Experiencing God quotes by Erich Fromm
I began to understand why so many people chose to be "born-again" and follow strict rules that would tell them what to do, once and for all. It was tempting to rely on a formula - "accepting Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and savior," for example - that became itself a form of idolatry and kept you from experiencing God in your flesh, in the complicated flesh of others. It was tempting to proclaim yourself "saved" and go back to sleep. ~ Sara Miles
Experiencing God quotes by Sara Miles
I don't think we should give up on ritual. I don't think we should give up on any possible means of experiencing God. ~ Brian D. McLaren
Experiencing God quotes by Brian D. McLaren
I have learned that there's no way to open yourself to the experience of God while retaining your cool, your sense of ironic detachment. ~ Ken Wilson
Experiencing God quotes by Ken Wilson
God is constantly Creating, Experiencing, Witnessing, De-constructing, and Expanding. God is everything and everyone – that's the realm where we don't exist at all. That's the realm where there's none, but One ~ Manprit Kaur
Experiencing God quotes by Manprit Kaur
If you have trouble hearing God speak, you are in trouble at the very heart of your Christian experience. ~ Henry Blackaby
Experiencing God quotes by Henry Blackaby
There is an essential connection between experiencing God, loving God, and trusting God. You will trust God only as much as you love him. And you will love him to the extent you have touched him, rather that he has touched you. ~ Brennan Manning
Experiencing God quotes by Brennan Manning
If God was going to do what He thought was best anyway, why bother to ask for anything one wanted? If you prayed, and God thought that what you asked should be granted, He would grant it. If you did not pray, and it was true that God always acted in one's best interest, you would receive whatever He wanted you to receive anyway.Prayer, thought Allison, was a dreadfully unfair, rather unsportsmanlike affair, with all the advantages on one side. ~ Grace Metalious
Experiencing God quotes by Grace Metalious
Knowledge of the name gives him who knows it mastery even over the being and will of the god. ~ Ernst Cassirer
Experiencing God quotes by Ernst Cassirer
Phury knelt beside him and stroked his face. "I've only ever had you to live for. If you die I have nothing.
I'm utterly lost. And you are needed here."
Zsadist tried to reach out, but couldn't lift his arms as Phury stood up.
"God, Z, I keep thinking this tragedy of ours is going to be over. But it just keeps going, doesn't it?"
Zsadist blacked out to the sound of his twin's boots heading from the room. ~ J.R. Ward
Experiencing God quotes by J.R. Ward
God does sometimes change our trying circumstances. But more often, He doesn't - because He wants to change us. ~ David Wilkerson
Experiencing God quotes by David Wilkerson
This is what Jesus had in mind: folks coming together, forming close-knit communities and meeting each other's needs
no kings, no major welfare systems, no presidents necessary. His is a theology and practice for the people of God, not a set of suggestions for empire. ~ Shane Claiborne
Experiencing God quotes by Shane Claiborne
Let the attitude of your life be a continual willingness to "go out" in dependence upon God, and your life will have a sacred and inexpressible charm about it that is very satisfying to Jesus. You must learn to "go out" through your convictions, creeds, or experiences until you come to the point in your faith where there is nothing between yourself and God. ~ Oswald Chambers
Experiencing God quotes by Oswald Chambers
We could never predict what moment in the service would trigger a full-blown crisis of faith. Once, it was the kids' choir singing "Nothing but the Blood" during special music.
"Surely I'm not the only one who thinks it's creepy to hear all those little voices singing about getting washed in the flow of someone's blood," I muttered as Dan and I escaped out the double doors.
Another time it was a prayer about God granting our troops victory over their enemies as they served him in Iraq.
"Don't you think the Iraqis are just as convinced God is on their side?" I whispered.
Sometimes it was just the way people chatted in the fellowship hall about "those liberals," as if feminists or Democrats or Methodists couldn't possibly be in their midst.
Often it was the assumption that women were unfit to speak from the pulpit or pass the collection plate on Sunday mornings, but were welcome to serve the men their key lime pie at the church picnic. ~ Rachel Held Evans
Experiencing God quotes by Rachel Held Evans
The Word of God does not just pass on information, knowledge and logic for the mind, but is also living & full of the Spirit. ~ Henry Hon
Experiencing God quotes by Henry Hon
to make science the arbiter of metaphysics is to banish not only God from the world but also love, hate, meaning - to consider a world that is self-evidently not the world we live in. That ~ Paul Kalanithi
Experiencing God quotes by Paul Kalanithi
If your looking for a place to be is in the presence of God we very thing is available for you to enjoy. ~ David Igbego Mbadiwe
Experiencing God quotes by David Igbego Mbadiwe
The more precious His gift," said Henry, "the more anxious God for its return. ~ Seth Grahame-Smith
Experiencing God quotes by Seth Grahame-Smith
I've had no contact with my daughter for years. That's her choice. Anyway, you move on. If people don't want to bother with me, fine. You know, God bless them, and move on. ~ Anthony Hopkins
Experiencing God quotes by Anthony Hopkins
You do sometimes watch performances and just think, 'I may as well give up. I won't reach that. I may as well give up.' But then there are other actors you watch and just think, 'Oh my God, yes, I want to try and do that. Try and be like that'. And Bryan Cranston is someone who I'd like to try and be like. ~ Tom Mison
Experiencing God quotes by Tom Mison
The whole point is I'm trying to get you to see-to get you out of this malaise of thinking that Jesus and the disciples were poor and then relating that to you thinking that you, as a child of God, have to follow Jesus. The Bible says that He has left us an example that we should follow His steps. That's the reason why I drive a Rolls Royce. I'm following Jesus' steps. ~ Frederick K. C. Price
Experiencing God quotes by Frederick K. C. Price
Know what we did, Lucy? You and me? We spent our whole lives yearning. Isn't that the God damndest thing? ~ Richard Yates
Experiencing God quotes by Richard Yates
You're standing by yourself talking about tits?" Kyler asked from behind me. I gave a little shriek and spun around. "God ... " A sexy half-grin appeared. "I need to keep a better eye on you, if that's what you talk about when you're alone. ~ Jennifer L. Armentrout
Experiencing God quotes by Jennifer L. Armentrout
Taken as a whole, the story of Ruth is one of those signs. It was written to give us encouragement and hope that all the perplexing turns in our lives are going somewhere good. They do not lead off a cliff. In all the setbacks of our lives as believers, God is plotting for our joy. ~ John Piper
Experiencing God quotes by John Piper
Like Keats he may wander through the old-world forests of Latmos, or stand like Morris on the galley's deck with the Viking when king and galley have long since passed away. But the drama is the meeting-place of art and life; it deals, as Mazzini said, not merely with man, but with social man, with man in his relation to God and to Humanity. It is the product of a period of great national united energy; it is impossible without a noble public, and belongs to such ages as the age of Elizabeth in London and of Pericles at Athens; it is part of such lofty moral and spiritual ardour as came to Greek after the defeat of the Persian fleet, and to Englishman after the wreck of the Armada of Spain. ~ Oscar Wilde
Experiencing God quotes by Oscar Wilde
What do you want of God, Roman?" It was an imperious question from so small a boy, and was said with a curious blend of humility and demand. "I'll know when I face him." "Perhaps the answers you seek can't be found in something you can see and touch." Amused, Marcus smiled. "You have big thoughts for a small boy." The boy grinned. "A shepherd has time to think." "Then, my little philosopher, what would you advise?" The boy's smile faded. "When you face God, remember he is God." "I'll remember what he's done," Marcus said coldly. "That, too," the boy said almost gently. ~ Francine Rivers
Experiencing God quotes by Francine Rivers
We should study Christ, and praise and bless God, and have our hearts enlarged for Jesus Christ. This is the duty of believers to whom God has revealed Christ as wonderful, that in their conversations they should hold out the wonderful glory of Jesus Christ. You should so walk before men as to manifest to all the world that your Savior is a wonderful Savior ~ Jeremiah Burroughs
Experiencing God quotes by Jeremiah Burroughs
Once my grandmother told me I needed to find God and I said, "Why don't you just tell me where to look and save me the trouble?" I was dead serious. Faith, destiny, all the shit you can't see, but yet people are so willing to take the leap. Not me. ~ Renee Carlino
Experiencing God quotes by Renee Carlino
1. Someday there will be a woman-one who takes your breath away. You won't be afraid of commitment, you'll be afraid of living without her. That's when you'll know. She'll be your reason to exist. You'll want to move heaven and earth to make her happy and see her smiling face. God help you then. He's the only one who can. ~ Liv Morris
Experiencing God quotes by Liv Morris
We are called to reflect the Lord's beauty through our lives as much as through our words, and God will use this in His own perfect time. ~ Helen Roseveare
Experiencing God quotes by Helen Roseveare
I'm to have dinner with some people from the bookshop, which is as posh as the motel, at six, then read at seven-thirty. I will have to watch my mouth. Some sarcastic remark about gentrification is almost bound to slip out. Even though the topography is right, this doesn't even look like Vermont. Not a cow in sight, not a single shack held together with staples and Masonite. Where are my people? The ones who used to go to Canada automatically at age 18 and get all their teeth pulled out, a standard right of passage. The ones who believe you can't be an alcoholic if you drink nothing but beer. The ones who know how to roast a haunch of venison with onions and garlic and sage and mustard (and where to find the haunch in July). The ones who buy their clothes at rummage and their cars at the junkyard. The ones who used to be me. Here I am on my balcony with a finger or two of cognac, a cigar, and a laptop computer, wearing my black jeans and my Reeboks. God, it's awful. ~ Hayden Carruth
Experiencing God quotes by Hayden Carruth
We can know what the Lord wants us to do - and experience 'the blessing which hath been bestowed upon us, that we have been made instruments in the hands of God to bring about this great work' (Alma 26:3). . . .

"To truly be an instrument in the hands of God, in order to fully have that blessing bestowed upon us in 'the day of this life' in which we 'perform [our] labors' (Alma 34:32), we must, as Elder Maxwell says, 'finally submit ourselves' (Ensign, Nov. 1995, 24) to the Lord. ~ Anne C. Pingree
Experiencing God quotes by Anne C. Pingree
Peace is the altar of God, the condition in which happiness exists. ~ Paramahansa Yogananda
Experiencing God quotes by Paramahansa Yogananda
Through the years, I have discovered some essential principles in discerning God's will: First, by God's grace, we must be firmly committed to seeking first the Kingdom of God and His glory. Secondly, we must establish a life discipline of renewing our minds in the Word of God. Thirdly, we must seek godly counsel from mature believers. Fourthly, we must watch for signs of God's providence opening doors and closing them. Finally, we should consider the desires of our heart. ~ Paul Washer
Experiencing God quotes by Paul Washer
Today give up false mental attachments and beliefs! Free yourself from the delusion that anything external can fulfill the hunger of your soul for God-Consciousness. ~ Michael Beckwith
Experiencing God quotes by Michael Beckwith
To Morgan, the disfigurement of his monstrous nose was the touch of God upon him, the assurance of mortality. It was the steadiest assurance he had. ~ E.L. Doctorow
Experiencing God quotes by E.L. Doctorow
Now, the atonement of Christ is the most basic and fundamental doctrine of the gospel, and it is the least understood of all our revealed truths.

Many of us have a superficial knowledge and rely upon the Lord and his goodness to see us through the trials and perils of life.

But if we are to have faith like Enoch and Elijah we must believe what they believed, know what they knew, and live as they lived.

May I invite you to join with me in gaining a sound and sure knowledge of the Atonement.

We must cast aside the philosophies of men and the wisdom of the wise and hearken to that Spirit which is given to us to guide us into all truth.

We must search the scriptures, accepting them as the mind and will and voice of the Lord and the very power of God unto salvation.

As we read, ponder, and pray, there will come into our minds a view of the three gardens of God - the Garden of Eden, the Garden of Gethsemane, and the Garden of the Empty Tomb where Jesus appeared to Mary Magdalene. ~ Bruce R. McConkie
Experiencing God quotes by Bruce R. McConkie
3But p sexual immorality and all impurity or covetousness q must not even be named among you, as is proper among saints. 4Let there be r no filthiness nor foolish talk nor crude joking, s which are out of place, but instead t let there be thanksgiving. 5For you may be sure of this, that u everyone who is sexually immoral or impure, or who is covetous ( v that is, an idolater), has no inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God. 6 w Let no one x deceive you with empty words, for because of these things y the wrath of God comes upon z the sons of disobedience. 7Therefore a do not become partners with them; 8for b at one time you were c darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. d Walk as children of light 9(for e the fruit of light is found in all that is good and right and true), 10and f try to discern ~ Anonymous
Experiencing God quotes by Anonymous
The child of God ought to confess his weakness that he does not know how to pray, and petition the Holy Spirit to teach him. ~ Watchman Nee
Experiencing God quotes by Watchman Nee
Soli Deo gloria.
Latin for Glory to God alone.
Bach used the initials (SDG) at the end of
all his musical manuscripts. ~ Bach
Experiencing God quotes by Bach
The fight lasts ten or fifteen minutes and then the A-10s show up and tilt into their dives. Ninety rounds a second the size of beer cans unzipping the mountainsides with a sound like the sky ripping. The men look up and whoop when they hear it, a punishment so unnegotiable it might as well have come from God. ~ Sebastian Junger
Experiencing God quotes by Sebastian Junger
What always strikes me in the story of Cain and Abel is how often the word "brother" is used. Cain killed his "brother." God says it was "the blood of your brother." The killing was done to another human being, a child of God like you, breaking that sacred bond of common humanity. ~ Allan Boesak
Experiencing God quotes by Allan Boesak
Oh God, my stomach must have won a medal- it's doing a lap of honour now. ~ Ali McNamara
Experiencing God quotes by Ali McNamara
Like God
Gumbo is hard
to get right
& I don't bother
asking for it outside
my mother's house.
Like life, there's no one
way to do it,
& a hundred ways,
from here to Sunday,
to get it dead wrong. ~ Kevin Young
Experiencing God quotes by Kevin Young
They are a lie, as our-no, your peole are a lie!" "Your skin is as dark as mine"' Malice reminded him. "You are a drow, though you have never learned what that means!" "Oh, I do know what it menas." "Then act by the rules!" Matron Malcius demanded. "Your rules? Drizzt growled back. "But your rules are a damned lie as well, as great as lie as that filthy spider you claim as a deity!" "A ture god damn you all!" "And damn that Spider Qyeen as well! ~ R.A. Salvatore
Experiencing God quotes by R.A. Salvatore
F He presented himself alive to them after his suffering by many proofs, appearing to them during forty days and speaking about the kingdom of God. ~ Anonymous
Experiencing God quotes by Anonymous
Resolved, to examine carefully, and constantly, what that one thing in me is, which causes me in the least to doubt the love of God; and to direct all my forces against it. ~ Jonathan Edwards
Experiencing God quotes by Jonathan Edwards
God gives manhood but one clew to success,
utter and exact justice; that he guarantees shall be always expediency. ~ Wendell Phillips
Experiencing God quotes by Wendell Phillips
[God is] everything in the creative force. ~ Marie Forleo
Experiencing God quotes by Marie Forleo
As we read the Bible, we see that God's role is not that of a scientist managing robots. Neither is God a frustrated artist who left an incomplete work and chose to start an altogether different one. Throughout the biblical testimonies, God is an involved character who loves relentlessly, judges fairly, and joins wholly in ongoing relationship with creation. The Bible itself has a "to be continued" ending, and God is to be understood as continuing in the action of the drama. God still partners with people today in an ongoing story of renewal. ~ Sara Gaston Barton
Experiencing God quotes by Sara Gaston Barton
When God allows something to be taken from you, He replaces it with something better. ~ Janette Oke
