Giving thanks is that: making the canyon of pain into a megaphone to proclaim the ultimate goodness of God when Satan and all the world would sneer at us to recant. ~ Ann Voskamp
Goodness Of God quotes by Ann Voskamp
Jean was visited by one of her rare moments of happiness, one of those moments when the goodness of God was so real to her that it was like taste and scent; the rough strong taste of honey in the comb and the scent of water. Her thoughts of God had a homeliness that at times seemed shocking, in spite of their power, which could rescue her from terror or evil with an ease that astonished her. ~ Elizabeth Goudge
Goodness Of God quotes by Elizabeth Goudge
The goodness of God is the highest object of prayer and it reaches down to our lowest need. ~ Julian Of Norwich
Goodness Of God quotes by Julian Of Norwich
Every man possesses that which is according to the image of God, for the gifts of God are irrevocable (Rom. 11:29). But only a few ? those who are virtuous and holy, and have imitated the goodness of God to the limit of human powers ? possess that which is according to the likeness of God. ~ John Of Damascus
Goodness Of God quotes by John Of Damascus
Don't allow the opinions of other people to shape your concept of him. Get to know him yourself, and let the goodness of God change you from the inside out. ~ Judah Smith
Goodness Of God quotes by Judah Smith
Theologians in all ages have looked out admiringly upon the material universe and … demonstrated the power, wisdom, and goodness of God; but we know of no one who has demonstrated the same attributes from the history of the human race. ~ Candice Millard
Goodness Of God quotes by Candice Millard
It is only the goodness of God sensibly experienced by us which opens our mouth to celebrate His praise. ~ John Calvin
Goodness Of God quotes by John Calvin
This is the Easter message, that awakening is possible, to the goodness of God, the sacredness of human life, the sisterhood and brotherhood of all. ~ Anne Lamott
Goodness Of God quotes by Anne Lamott
Whenever we show others the goodness of God, whenever we follow our Teacher by imitating His posture of humble and ready service, our actions are sacred and ministerial. To be called into the priesthood, as all of us are, is to be called to a life of presence, of kindness. ~ Rachel Held Evans
Goodness Of God quotes by Rachel Held Evans
Had God kept from being made those who through His goodness were to have existence, but who by their own choice were to become evil, then evil would have prevailed over the goodness of God. Thus, all things which God makes He makes good, but each one becomes good or evil by his own choice. So, even if the Lord did say: 'It were better for him if that man had not been born,' He did not say so in deprecation of His own creature, but in deprecation of that creature's choice and rashness. ~ John Damascene
Goodness Of God quotes by John Damascene
This is true faith, a living confidence in the goodness of God. ~ Martin Luther
Goodness Of God quotes by Martin Luther
Faith is a free surrenderand a joyous wager on the unseen, unknown, untested goodness of God. ~ Martin Luther
Goodness Of God quotes by Martin Luther
There is for a free man no occupation more worthy and delightful than to contemplate the beauteous works of nature and honor the infinite wisdom and goodness of God. ~ John Ray
Goodness Of God quotes by John Ray
The true notion is that the material universe is a sign or an indication of what God is. We look at the purity of the snowflake and we see something of the goodness of God. The world is full of poetry: it is sin which turns it into prose. ~ Fulton J. Sheen
Goodness Of God quotes by Fulton J. Sheen
Enrich your soul in the great goodness of God: The Father is your table, the Son is your food, and the Holy Spirit waits on you and then makes His dwelling in you. ~ St. Catherine Of Siena
Goodness Of God quotes by St. Catherine Of Siena
Oh, how great is the goodness of God, greater than we can understand. There are moments and there are mysteries of the divine mercy over which the heavens are astounded. Let our judgment of souls cease, for God's mercy upon them is extraordinary. ~ Mary Faustina Kowalska
Goodness Of God quotes by Mary Faustina Kowalska
God is at work telling a story of restoration and redemption through your family. Never buy into the myth that you need to become the "
right" kind of parent before God can use you in your children's lives. Instead learn to cooperate with whatever God desires to do in your heart today so your children will have a front-row seat to the grace and goodness of God. ~ Reggie Joiner
Goodness Of God quotes by Reggie Joiner
But God has no natural relation to us, as the authors of the heresies will have it; neither on the supposition of His having made us of nothing, nor on that of having formed us from matter; since the former did not exist at all, and the latter is totally distinct from God, unless we shall dare to say that we are a part of Him, and of the same essence as God. And I know not how one, who knows God, can bear to hear this when he looks to our life, and sees in what evils we are involved. For thus it would turn out, which it were impiety to utter, that God sinned in [certain] portions, if the portions are parts of the whole and complementary of the whole; and if not complementary, neither can they be parts. But God being by nature rich in pity, in consequence of His own goodness, cares for us, though neither portions of Himself, nor by nature His children. And this is the greatest proof of the goodness of God: that such being our relation to Him, and being by nature wholly estranged, He nevertheless cares for us. For the affection in animals to their progeny is natural, and the friendship of kindred minds is the result of intimacy. But the mercy of God is rich toward us, who are in no respect related to Him; I say either in our essence or nature, or in the peculiar energy of our essence, but only in our being the work of His will. ~ Clement Of Alexandria
Goodness Of God quotes by Clement Of Alexandria
We are kept all as securely in Love in woe as in weal, by the Goodness of God. ~ Julian Of Norwich
Goodness Of God quotes by Julian Of Norwich
Rabbi Kushner writes from a wealth of Jewish wisdom and pastoral devotion, but his theology is, I find, is wholly in keeping with contemporary Christian thought. So far as there is an answer to the conflict between the goodness of God and the bitterness of suffering, this is it ~ Gerald Priestland
Goodness Of God quotes by Gerald Priestland
That is what a shadow is, and empty space, a hole in the light. Evil is this - a hole in the goodness of God. ~ Ann Voskamp
Goodness Of God quotes by Ann Voskamp
It's a great responsibility before God, the judge who guides us, who draws us to truth and good, and in this sense the church must unmask evil, rendering present the goodness of God, rendering present his truth, the truly infinite for which we are thirsty. ~ Pope Benedict XVI
Goodness Of God quotes by Pope Benedict XVI
With the goodness of God to desire our highest welfare, the wisdom of God to plan it, and the power of God to achieve it, what do we lack? Surely we are the most favored of all creatures. ~ A.W. Tozer
Goodness Of God quotes by A.W. Tozer
Now I think ultimately our hope is certainly that people can feel and taste the goodness of God and to find the salvation in Jesus's love and sacrifice. Sometimes the biggest barrier to that has been Christians and has been a Church that is numb to the poverty of the world or just sees our Christianity as a ticket into heaven while ignoring the hells of the world around us. And we're not willing to settle for that kind of Christianity. We believe in a kingdom that begins now and that the kingdom of God Jesus preached is not just something we're to go to when we die but that we're to bring down on earth as it is in heaven. ~ Shane Claiborne
Goodness Of God quotes by Shane Claiborne
I stopped being watchful and diligent. I rushed after my own lusts. I sinned against the light of the Word and the goodness of God. I have grieved the Spirit, and He is gone. I tempted the Devil, and he has come to me. I have provoked God to anger, and He has left me. I have so hardened my heart that I cannot repent.
Then ~ John Bunyan
Goodness Of God quotes by John Bunyan
The Country is both the Philosopher's Garden and his Library, in which he Reads and Contemplates the Power, Wisdom and Goodness of God. ~ William Penn
Goodness Of God quotes by William Penn
A saint is not someone who is good but who experiences the goodness of God. ~ Brennan Manning
Goodness Of God quotes by Brennan Manning
When you are going through a test, just remember it WILL become your testimony to glorify God. Stay faithful and see the goodness of God!! ~ Alisa Hope Wagner
Goodness Of God quotes by Alisa Hope Wagner
those who see the nightly splendor of the moon are possessed by perverse ingratitude if they do not recognize the goodness of God. ~ John Calvin
Goodness Of God quotes by John Calvin
Grace (the Gospel) is under attack today simply because it reveals the GOODNESS of God. Nothing reveals the GOODNESS of God more than grace. ~ John Paul Warren
Goodness Of God quotes by John Paul Warren
And if thy heart be straight with God then every creature shall be to thee a mirror of life and a book of holy doctrine for there is no creature so little or so despised but that sheweth and representeth the goodness of God. ~ Thomas A Kempis
Goodness Of God quotes by Thomas A Kempis
I wonder at the goodness of God, the generosity of my friends, the bounty of my lot. I do not repine. ~ Charlotte Bronte
Goodness Of God quotes by Charlotte Bronte
I am grateful for all the goodness of God. ~ Lailah Gifty Akita
Goodness Of God quotes by Lailah Gifty Akita
Hence Augustine defined the highest state of human freedom not as "being able not to sin" (posse non peccare) but as "being unable to sin" (non posse peccare): a condition that reflects the infinite goodness of God, who, because nothing can hinder him in the perfect realization of his own nature, is "incapable" of evil and so is infinitely free.
That, ~ David Bentley Hart
Goodness Of God quotes by David Bentley Hart
What would have happened to me if I would not have believed I would see the goodness of God? ~ Joel Osteen
Goodness Of God quotes by Joel Osteen
There is a power in the soul, quite separate from the intellect, which sweeps away or recognizes the marvelous, by which God is felt. Faith stands serenely far above the reach of the atheism of science. It does not rest on the wonderful, but on the eternal wisdom and goodness of God. The revelation of the Son was to proclaim a Father, not a mystery. No science can sweep away the everlasting love which the heart feels, and which the intellect does not even pretend to judge or recognize. ~ Frederick William Robertson
Goodness Of God quotes by Frederick William Robertson
That is what a shadow is, an empty space, a hole in the light. Evil is that - a hole in the goodness of God. Evil is all that lacks the goodness of God, a willful choice to turn away from the full goodness of God to that empty of His goodness.
All God makes is good. Can it be that, that which seems to oppose the will of God actually is used of Him to accomplish the will of God. That which seems evil only seems so because of perspective, the way the eyes see the shadows. Above the clouds, light never stops shining. ~ Ann Voskamp
Goodness Of God quotes by Ann Voskamp
The path which we believe in is the path of love; it has all the goodness of God in it-calmness and kindness. ~ Harbhajan Singh Yogi
Goodness Of God quotes by Harbhajan Singh Yogi
It's always too soon to quit! Believe in the goodness of God practically speaking. ~ Eric C. Maynard
Goodness Of God quotes by Eric C. Maynard
The goodness of God to mankind is no less evinced in the chastisement with which He corrects His children than in the smiles of His providence; for the Lord will not cast off forever, but though He cause grief, yet will He have compassion according to the multitude of His mercies. ~ Hosea Ballou
Goodness Of God quotes by Hosea Ballou
Without the Gospel, I am only projecting behavioral modification. Changes of the heart must trump mere change of behavior. Therefore, the goodness of God through the gospel must trump all other philosophies in the home. ~ Eric Mason
Goodness Of God quotes by Eric Mason
For God is good - or rather, of all goodness He is the Fountainhead. ~ Athanasius Of Alexandria
Goodness Of God quotes by Athanasius Of Alexandria
As it is impossible to verbally describe the sweetness of honey to one who has never tasted honey, so the goodness of God cannot be clearly communicated by way of teaching if we ourselves are not able to penetrate into the goodness of the Lord by our own experience. ~ Saint Basil
Goodness Of God quotes by Saint Basil
The greatest risk to human flourishing, then, is not institutionalization but the loss of institutions. In our time we have seen the rise of the "prosperity gospel," which in its crassest forms promises quick wealth in mechanical proportion to faith. But the prosperity gospel has not only a thin and unbiblical understanding of wealth (which in Scripture is never a private matter but an occasion for blessing for whole communities, not to mention the fruit and source of justice) - it has a thin and unbiblical understanding of time. In the biblical mindset, prosperity that does not last is not true prosperity at all. The only biblical prosperity gospel is a posterity gospel - the promise that generation after generation will know the goodness of God through the properly stewarded abundance of God's world. ~ Andy Crouch
Goodness Of God quotes by Andy Crouch
Guidance, like all God's acts of blessing under the covenant of grace, is a sovereign act. Not merely does God will to guide us in the sense of showing us his way, that we may tread it; he wills also to guide us in the more fundamental sense of ensuring that, whatever happens, whatever mistakes we may make, we shall come safely home. Slippings and strayings there will be, no doubt, but the everlasting arms are beneath us; we shall be caught, rescued, restored. This is God's promise; this is how good he is. ~ J.I. Packer
Goodness Of God quotes by J.I. Packer
Our obedience to God's commandments comes as a natural outgrowth of our endless love and gratitude for the goodness of God. ~ Dieter F. Uchtdorf
Goodness Of God quotes by Dieter F. Uchtdorf
The gospel opens our heart to the goodness of God, ~ Lailah Gifty Akita
Goodness Of God quotes by Lailah Gifty Akita
(The difficulty over the question of eternal torments lies in) how it is irreconcilable with the Goodness of God, to put any Persons at all upon a necessity of making such an Option, wherein if they choose amiss, the Misery they incur must be irrevocable. ~ Samuel Clarke
Goodness Of God quotes by Samuel Clarke
The​ ​Gospels​ ​are​ ​full​ ​of​ ​testimonies​ ​of​ ​God's​ ​power​ ​from​ ​eyewitnesses​ ​who​ ​saw​ ​Jesus heal​ ​the​ ​sick​ ​and​ ​raise​ ​the​ ​dead.​ ​​ ​When​ ​the​ ​blind​ ​man​ ​received​ ​sight,​ ​he​ ​went​ ​and​ ​told​ ​others.

Goodness Of God quotes by Eric Irivuzumugabe
Let us be women who Love.
Let us be women willing to lay down our sword words, our sharp looks, our ignorant silence and towering stance and fill the earth now with extravagant Love.
Let us be women who Love.
Let us be women who make room.
Let us be women who open our arms and invite others into an honest, spacious, glorious embrace.

Let us be women who carry each other.
Let us be women who give from what we have.
Let us be women who leap to do the difficult things, the unexpected things and the necessary things.
Let us be women who live for Peace.
Let us be women who breathe Hope.
Let us be women who create beauty.
Let us be women who Love.

Let us be a sanctuary where God may dwell.
Let us be a garden for tender souls.
Let us be a table where others may feast on the goodness of God.
Let us be a womb for Life to grow.
Let us be women who Love.

Let us rise to the questions of our time.
Let us speak to the injustices in our world.
Let us move the mountains of fear and intimidation
Let us shout down the walls that separate and divide.
Let us fill the earth with the fragrance of Love.
Let us be women who Love.

Let us listen for those who have been silenced.
Let us honor those who have been devalued.
Let us say, Enough! with abuse, abandonment, diminishing and hiding.
Let us not rest until every person is f ~ Idelette McVicker
Goodness Of God quotes by Idelette McVicker
4 But when the goodness of God and His love for mankind appeared, 5 He saved us - not by works of righteousness that we had done, but according to His mercy, through the washing of regeneration and renewal by the Holy Spirit. ~ Anonymous
Goodness Of God quotes by Anonymous
Whatever may be the mysteries of life and death, there is one mystery which the cross of Christ reveals to us, and that is the infinite and absolute goodness of God. Let all the rest remain a mystery so long as the mystery of the cross of Christ gives us faith for all the rest. ~ Charles Kingsley
Goodness Of God quotes by Charles Kingsley
Praise consists in the love of God, in wonder at the goodness of God, in recognition of the gifts of God, in seeing God in all things He gives us, ay, and even in the things that He refuses to us; so as to see our whole life in the light of God; and seeing this, to bless Him, adore Him, and glorify Him. ~ Henry Edward Manning
Goodness Of God quotes by Henry Edward Manning
God loves his creatures, and he loves each one the more, the more it shares his own goodness, which is the first and primary object of his love. Therefore he wants the desires of his rational creatures to be fulfilled because they share most perfectly of all creatures the goodness of god.
And his will is an accomplisher of things because he is the cause of things by his will. So it belongs to the divine goodness to fulfill the desires of rational creatures which are put to him in prayer. ~ Thomas Aquinas
Goodness Of God quotes by Thomas Aquinas
With time and perspective we recognize that such problems in life do come for a purpose, if only to allow the one who faces such despair to be convinced that he really does need divine strength beyond himself, that she really does need the offer of heaven's hand. Those who feel no need for mercy usually never seek it and almost never bestow it. Those who have never had a heartache or a weakness or felt lonely or forsaken never have had to cry unto heaven for relief of such personal pain. Surely it is better to find the goodness of God and the grace of Christ, even at the price of despair, than to risk living our lives in a moral or material complacency that has never felt any need for faith or forgiveness, any need for redemption or relief. ~ Jeffery R. Holland
Goodness Of God quotes by Jeffery R. Holland
Instead of suffering fruitlessly through your trials, be sure to keep your eyes fixed on your heavenly Father who has good purposes in all you experience. Check yourself for sin that has not been dealt with. Lean on the grace and goodness of God, and you will find relief. ~ Joe Thorn
Goodness Of God quotes by Joe Thorn
But a faithful believer will in all circumstances mediate on the mercy and fatherly goodness of God. ~ John Calvin
Goodness Of God quotes by John Calvin
I have often thought with wonder of the great goodness of God; and my soul has rejoiced in the contemplation of His great magnificence and mercy. May He be blessed for ever! For I see clearly that He has not omitted to reward me, even in this life, for every one of my good desires. ~ Saint Teresa Of Avila
Goodness Of God quotes by Saint Teresa Of Avila
When we are broken because of increased hardship, we simply have to trust in the goodness of God. ~ Steve Farrar
Goodness Of God quotes by Steve Farrar
If I complain about the difficult circumstances of my life, I impugn the sovereignty and goodness of God and tempt my listener to do the same. ~ Jerry Bridges
Goodness Of God quotes by Jerry Bridges
In regard to the present question, while it explains what our duty is it teaches that the power of obeying it is derived from the goodness of God, and it accordingly urges us to pray that this power may be given us. ~ John Calvin
Goodness Of God quotes by John Calvin
Contentment is an expression of faith in the goodness of God. It says, God, I believe you love me and know what's best for me. ~ Rick Warren
Goodness Of God quotes by Rick Warren
Even the things we don't understand are a display of the goodness of God. ~ Liz Curtis Higgs
Goodness Of God quotes by Liz Curtis Higgs
There is no creature so small and abject, that it representeth not the goodness of God. ~ Thomas A Kempis
Goodness Of God quotes by Thomas A Kempis
All that the follower of Jesus has to do is to make sure that his obedience, following and love are entirely spontaneous and unpremeditated. If you do good, you must not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, you must be quite unconscious of it. Otherwise you are simply displaying your own virtue, and not that which has its source in Jesus Christ. Christ's virtue, the virtue of discipleship, can only be accomplished so long as you are entirely unconscious of what you are doing. The genuine work of love is always a hidden work. Take heed therefore that you know it not, for only so is it the goodness of God. If we want to know our own goodness or love, it has already ceased to be love. We must be unaware even of our love for our enemies. After all, when we love them they are no longer our enemies. This voluntary blindness in the Christan (which is really sight illuminated by Christ) is his certainty, and the fact that his life is hidden from his sight is the ground of his assurance. ~ Dietrich Bonhoeffer
Goodness Of God quotes by Dietrich Bonhoeffer
To have an open self is to provide a free channel for the infinite goodness of God. To have an open self is to keep yourself aware, alert and sensitive to the beauty and wonder of life. God's love will flow through you into the world when you are open. You enlarge the dimensions of your life when you keep yourself open to the highest and best. The key to God's infinite riches is within you; open yourself and you will receive. ~ Wilferd Peterson
Goodness Of God quotes by Wilferd Peterson
It's been said that people see what they want to see. For that exact reason, look for the good in people, rather than the bad. ~ Donald L. Hicks
Goodness Of God quotes by Donald L. Hicks
The goodness of God is infinitely more wonderful than we will ever be able to comprehend. ~ Aiden Wilson Tozer
Goodness Of God quotes by Aiden Wilson Tozer
Remember the goodness of God in the frost of adversity. ~ Charles Spurgeon
Goodness Of God quotes by Charles Spurgeon
He (Lincoln) differed from fanatical moralists primarily in that he was always perplexed. No sooner did he believe he was doing God's will that he began to admit that God's purposes might be different from his own. In short, he never forgot the men's contrast between the absolute goodness of God and the faltering goodness of all who are in the finite predicament. ~ Elton Trueblood
Goodness Of God quotes by Elton Trueblood
Great is the goodness of God. ~ Lailah Gifty Akita
Goodness Of God quotes by Lailah Gifty Akita
JANUARY 19 Expect the Blessings of God Wait and hope for and expect the Lord; be brave and of good courage and let your heart be stout and enduring. PSALM 27:14 Sometimes you may feel discouraged, miserable, and depressed. In those times you need to take a close look at what's been going on in your mind. Isaiah 26:3 tells you when you keep your mind on the Lord you will have "perfect and constant peace." By focusing on the goodness of God and waiting, hoping, and expecting Him to encourage you and fill you with His peace and joy, you can overcome negative thoughts that drag you down. Think and speak positively. Begin believing right now that you are about to see God's goodness in your life. Wait, hope, and expect His blessings to be abundant in your life. ~ Joyce Meyer
Goodness Of God quotes by Joyce Meyer
Oh, the wickedness of man is very great," said Villefort, "since it surpasses the goodness of God. ~ Alexandre Dumas
Goodness Of God quotes by Alexandre Dumas
[People of faith must] reassure them [atheists] that we share with them the core values of America, that our faith is not inconsistent with their freedom and our mission is not one of intolerance, but one of love ... I stand before you today as a witness to the goodness of God. For me, like you and like my running mate Al Gore, faith provided a foundation, order and purpose in my life. ~ Joe Lieberman
Goodness Of God quotes by Joe Lieberman
I have often felt a motion of love to leave some hints in writing of my experience of the goodness of God, and now, in the thirty-sixth year of my age, I begin this work. ~ John Woolman
Goodness Of God quotes by John Woolman
What is the scent of water?"
"Renewal. The goodness of God coming down like dew. ~ Elizabeth Goudge
Goodness Of God quotes by Elizabeth Goudge
The egg is white though the hen is black as coal ... Out of evil comes good, through the great goodness of God. ~ Charles Haddon Spurgeon
Goodness Of God quotes by Charles Haddon Spurgeon
is part of the infinite goodness of God, that He ~ Peter Kreeft
Goodness Of God quotes by Peter Kreeft
... He showed me a little thing, the quantity of a hazel nut, lying in the palm of my hand ... as round as any ball. I looked at it and thought, What may this be, and I was answered generally thus: It is all that is made. I marvelled how it might last. For I thought it might fall suddenly to nothing, for little cause; and I was answered in my understanding: It lasts and ever shall, for God loves it. And so has everything its being, through the love of God. ~ Margaret Atwood
Goodness Of God quotes by Margaret Atwood
The only way to break the chains of fear and doubt is to know in your heart that God loves you-no matter what. ~ Joyce Meyer
Goodness Of God quotes by Joyce Meyer
The ugliness that man can do to man might cast a shadow between you and the certainty of the justice and mercy God can do to him hereafter. It takes half a lifetime to reach the spot where eternity is always visible, and the crude injustice of the hour shrivels out of sight. ~ Ellis Peters
Goodness Of God quotes by Ellis Peters
No God, no fraud! (For people who do wrongs in the name of God) ~ Saurabh Sharma
Goodness Of God quotes by Saurabh Sharma
Attention is our first duty whenever we want to know what is our second duty. There is no such cause of confusion and worry about what we ought to do, and how to do it, as our unwillingness to hear what God would tell us on that very point. ~ Henry Clay Trumbull
Goodness Of God quotes by Henry Clay Trumbull
When you feel angry or frustrated at a brother for using a particular defense -- being controlling or whatever it is -- you are failing to forgive yourself for the very same attempt; you still believe that the defense has a reality. You are seeing it out there but when you start to pull it back to your mind, you start to see the control in yourself. The guilt from transferring it from one seeming person/body to another seeming person/body is enormous. Instead of blaming your brother, the blame gets turned onto your own seeming body, but it is still the same error. We have to see that I am mind; this identity that I took off of my brother but still saw in myself is also just a construct in my mind. Otherwise, what good is the transfer? ~ David Hoffmeister
Goodness Of God quotes by David Hoffmeister
The importance of coming into God's presence is worth overcoming all obstacles along the way. ~ Aiden Wilson Tozer
Goodness Of God quotes by Aiden Wilson Tozer
Dear Rocky,
Here I am taking my pencil in my hand to say hello, hoping you are in the best of health, both physically and mentally. As for me, I am fine thanks to Almighty God.
The weather in the valley is in the shits. It's been raining since Thanksgiving and here it is almost at the end of December and it's still raining. Instead of growing a prick, I think I'm going to grow a tail, like a tadpole. Ha, ha, ha! ~ Rocky Gamez
Goodness Of God quotes by Rocky Gamez
Forgive yourself first. Let go of past hurts and direct your spirit to goodness and hope by having gratitude. ~ Janet Taylor Spence
Goodness Of God quotes by Janet Taylor Spence
God forgive me if I do wrong in following with ardor the strongest instincts of my nature. ~ Julia Ward Howe
Goodness Of God quotes by Julia Ward Howe
With God all things are possible ~ Jehovah
Goodness Of God quotes by Jehovah
But we do not fear silence, for often God speaks loudest in the quiet of our hearts. And ~ Diana Gabaldon
Goodness Of God quotes by Diana Gabaldon
but is it not heartening to know that so many are willing to fight for the good? Think of that young librarian, Sophie, who made certain you escaped. Think of S.Q., who risked my brother's wrath to make me more comfortable. Think of Captain Noland, and Joe Shooter, and all the others – even strangers – who were prepared to sacrifice their safety, perhaps even their lives, on our behalf. That's something, is it not? ~ Trenton Lee Stewart
Goodness Of God quotes by Trenton Lee Stewart
On previous occasions when God incarnated on earth, the bliss of recognising Him in the incarnation was vouchsafed only after the physical embodiment had left the world, in spite of plenty of evidences of His Grace. But, ponder a moment on this Sathya Sai Manifestation; in this age of rampant materialism, aggressive disbelief and irreverence, what is it that brings to It the adoration of millions from all over the world? You will be convinced that the basic reason for this is the fact that this is the Supra-worldly Divinity in Human Form. ~ Sathya Sai Baba
Goodness Of God quotes by Sathya Sai Baba
It's tragic that extremists co-opt the notion of God, and that hipsters and artists reject spirituality out of hand. I don't have a fixed idea of God. But I feel that it's us - the messed-up, the half-crazy, the burning, the questing - that need God, a lot more than the goody-two-shoes do. ~ Mike Doughty
Goodness Of God quotes by Mike Doughty
If sometimes our poor people have had to die of starvation, it is not that God didn't care for them, but because you and I didn't give, were not an instrument of love in the hands of God, to give them that bread, to give them that clothing; because we did not recognize him, when once more Christ came in distressing disguise, in the hungry man, in the lonely man, in the homeless child, and seeking for shelter. ~ Mother Teresa
Goodness Of God quotes by Mother Teresa
All peoples, clap your hands. Cry to God with shouts of joy! Ps 47 (46):2 ~ Anonymous
Goodness Of God quotes by Anonymous
Death is the handmaiden of the pilot. Sometimes it comes by accident, sometimes by an act of God. ~ Albert Scott Crossfield
Goodness Of God quotes by Albert Scott Crossfield
I say salvation is the free gift of God. It is God's free grace, I preach unto you, not of works, lest anyone should boast. Jesus Christ justifies the ungodly. Jesus Christ passed by and saw you polluted with your blood and bid you live. ~ George Whitefield
Goodness Of God quotes by George Whitefield
The fatherless son had two new moons in his forty days in the wilderness, the second one telling him it was time to become God and enter the beast of history. ~ Jim Harrison
Goodness Of God quotes by Jim Harrison
You will find it a stronghold in the day of trial to plead your adoption. You have no rights as a subject, you have forfeited them by your treason; but nothing can forfeit a child's right to a father's protection. ~ Charles Haddon Spurgeon
Goodness Of God quotes by Charles Haddon Spurgeon
Little men," he once said, "spend their days in pursuit of such things. I know from experience that at the moment of their deaths they see their lives shattered before them like glass. I've seen them die. They fall away as if they have been pushed, and the expressions on their faces are those of the most unbelieving surprise. Not so, the man who knows the virtues and lives by them. The world goes this way and that. Ideas are in fashion or not, and those who should prevail are often defeated. But it doesn't matter. The virtues remain uncorrupted and uncorruptible. They are rewards in themselves, the bulwarks with which we can protect our vision of beauty, and the strengths by which we may stand, unperturbed, in the storm that comes when seeking God. ~ Mark Helprin
Goodness Of God quotes by Mark Helprin
