Men are not sent to hell because of being murderers or liars, they are sent to hell because they are unrighteous. ~ David Jeremiah
Jeremiah quotes by David Jeremiah
What makes art Christian art? Is it simply Christian artists painting biblical subjects like Jeremiah? Or, by attaching a halo, does that suddenly make something Christian art? Must the artist's subject be religious to be Christian? I don't think so. There is a certain sense in which art is its own justification. If art is good art, if it is true art, if it is beautiful art, then it is bearing witness to the Author of the good, the true, and the beautiful ~ R.C. Sproul
Jeremiah quotes by R.C. Sproul
They will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by the stream. It does not fear when the heat comes; its leaves are always green. ~ Jeremiah 17:8
Jeremiah quotes by Jeremiah 17:8
The heat swept off the black asphalt in waves as our ragged group started down the street between two columns of people. At first, the crowd was sparse, well-dressed, and relatively quiet, obviously high-ranking party officials. As the crowd got thicker and louder, a guard shouted:'Bow your heads!' The words shot through me like a streak of lightning. I shouted:'You are Americans! Keep your heads up! ~ Jeremiah A. Denton Jr.
Jeremiah quotes by Jeremiah A. Denton Jr.
People no longer rely on the Bible as either their standard for living or their source of truth. In fact, few people even bother to read it anymore. ~ David Jeremiah
Jeremiah quotes by David Jeremiah
It is contrary to the worship that is in contentedness. ~ Jeremiah Burroughs
Jeremiah quotes by Jeremiah Burroughs
Set a clear focus in your life , and fear will be crowded out. The more you fix your eyes on God's purpose for you, the more you will overcome your fear. ~ David Jeremiah
Jeremiah quotes by David Jeremiah
I find a sufficiency of satisfaction in my own heart, through the grace of Christ that is in me. Though I have not outward comforts and worldly conveniences to supply my necessities, yet I have a sufficient portion between Christ and my soul abundantly to satisfy me in every condition. ~ Jeremiah Burroughs
Jeremiah quotes by Jeremiah Burroughs
For I know the plans for you" declares the LORD, plans to prosper you and not to harm you plans to give you hope and a future

Jeremiah 29:11 ~ Anonymous
Jeremiah quotes by Anonymous
In his book Where Was God? Erwin Lutzer writes, Often the same people who ask where God was following a disaster thanklessly refuse to worship and honor Him for years of peace and calmness. They disregard God in good times, yet think He is obligated to provide help when bad times come. They believe the God they dishonor when they are well should heal them when they are sick; the God they ignore when they are wealthy should rescue them from impending poverty; and the God they refuse to worship when the earth is still should rescue them when it begins to shake. We must admit that God owes us nothing. Before we charge God with not caring, we must thank Him for those times when His care is very evident. We are ever surrounded by undeserved blessings. Even in His silence, He blesses us. ~ David Jeremiah
Jeremiah quotes by David Jeremiah
We live in such constant nearness to the abyss of past time that the moment is endlessly sucked into. ~ John Jeremiah Sullivan
Jeremiah quotes by John Jeremiah Sullivan
Prayer is an act of faith. Just by praying to God, you are declaring our trust in someone other than yourself. Your faith is increased as you pray and watch how God answers your prayers. God says in Jeremiah 33:3, Call to Me and I will answer you, and I will tell you great and mighty things, which you do not know. God is awesome in power and there is never a time when He is not beside you. He is faithful and holy. ~ Charles Stanley
Jeremiah quotes by Charles Stanley
Sounding frank, honest, and sincere is, of course, a rhetorical strategy in itself, known from ancient literature as parrhesia. It's often employed by liars. ~ John Jeremiah Sullivan
Jeremiah quotes by John Jeremiah Sullivan
Every decision we make has to be evaluated in light of our life-changing commitment to being a servant of Christ and His kingdom. ~ David Jeremiah
Jeremiah quotes by David Jeremiah
My design has always been a derivative of people I meet. I want to translate who they are and their personality into a room. ~ Jeremiah Brent
Jeremiah quotes by Jeremiah Brent
I prayed. God became more than faith. He became knowledge, and I appealed to him. Then I became ashamed. Why hadn't I embraced him so thoroughly before? ~ Jeremiah Denton
Jeremiah quotes by Jeremiah Denton
When you're facing all the issues of life and you don't know what to do, accept the fact that you are human. We all are. We don't have the capacity to understand Almighty God. But you know what? We know Jesus Christ. He's the wisdom of God. And He put His Holy Spirit in us. So having access to the Holy Spirit and Jesus, we can face the challenges of today with the wisdom of God. ~ David Jeremiah
Jeremiah quotes by David Jeremiah
Perhaps the most likely answer is that, in the Bible, six is the number for human beings. People were created on the sixth day, and they are to work six of seven days. A Hebrew could not be a slave for more than six years. God's number, on the other hand, is seven. He created seven days in a week. There are seven colors in the visible spectrum and seven notes in a musical scale. Biblically, there are seven feasts of Jehovah (Leviticus 23); seven sayings of Jesus from the cross; and seven "secrets" in the Kingdom parables (Matthew 13). At the fall of Jericho, seven priests marched in front of the army bearing seven trumpets of rams' horns, and on the seventh day they marched around the city seven times (Joshua 6). ~ David Jeremiah
Jeremiah quotes by David Jeremiah
According to Jeremiah 31 and Ezekiel 36, God promised to impart His law into us, to change our heart, to regenerate our spirit, and to put His Spirit within us. As a result, we have the inward law, which is actually God Himself, to produce in us not only what God requires, but also what God is. This was the reason the Lord Jesus said to His disciples, "You therefore shall be perfect as your heavenly Father is perfect" (Matt. 5:48). When the divine life within us grows to perfection, we shall be perfect even as our Father is perfect. ~ Witness Lee
Jeremiah quotes by Witness Lee
God has a habit of using people, their gifts, and their resources to carry out His plans. In fact, we were created to be God's deputies, doing His work on earth. ~ David Jeremiah
Jeremiah quotes by David Jeremiah
Be honest with God and ask Him to give you a willingness to do the work of prayer. ~ David Jeremiah
Jeremiah quotes by David Jeremiah
We must trust God with what we can't control. ~ David Jeremiah
Jeremiah quotes by David Jeremiah
After four tortured years, more than 400 over life-sized figures, I felt as old and as weary as Jeremiah. I was only 37, yet friends did not recognize the old man I had become. ~ Michelangelo
Jeremiah quotes by Michelangelo
Do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go. JOSHUA 1:9 ~ David Jeremiah
Jeremiah quotes by David Jeremiah
Scripture suggests that meditating on the Word of God can have an always-on effect of peace and strength in difficult times. ~ David Jeremiah
Jeremiah quotes by David Jeremiah
1:5 God knew you, as he knew Jeremiah, long before you were born or even conceived. He thought about you and planned for you. When you feel discouraged or inadequate, remember that God has always thought of you as valuable and that he has a purpose in mind for you. ~ Anonymous
Jeremiah quotes by Anonymous
The Spirit expressly says that in latter times some will depart from the faith" (1 Timothy 4:1). "The time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires . . . they will heap up for themselves teachers; and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables" (2 Timothy 4:3-4). ~ David Jeremiah
Jeremiah quotes by David Jeremiah
Maybe the greatest gift marriage gives us is the chance to fantasize, to imagine that there's more to life than there actually is, and it accomplishes this by assuming responsibility for all the misery and dullness that we would otherwise equate with life itself. ~ John Jeremiah Sullivan
Jeremiah quotes by John Jeremiah Sullivan
It's important to pull tons of pieces! If you have lots of options to choose from, you can play around and see that things that you wouldn't originally have expected to work together actually do! That applies to both clothing and decorating. ~ Jeremiah Brent
Jeremiah quotes by Jeremiah Brent
This is why you can never reason true Christians out of the faith. It's not, as the adage has it, because they were never reasoned into it - many were - it's that faith is a logical door which locks behind you. What looks like a line of thought is steadily warping ... ~ John Jeremiah Sullivan
Jeremiah quotes by John Jeremiah Sullivan
Discipleship is crucial to our ultimate destiny, but its cost is total commitment. ~ David Jeremiah
Jeremiah quotes by David Jeremiah
If you take a galaxy and try to make it bigger, it becomes a cluster of galaxies, not a galaxy. If you try to make it smaller than that, it seems to blow itself apart. ~ Jeremiah P. Ostriker
Jeremiah quotes by Jeremiah P. Ostriker
Life before birth is a dream, life after death is another dream. What comes between is only a mirage of the dreams. ~ John Jeremiah Sullivan
Jeremiah quotes by John Jeremiah Sullivan
There have been other girls. But they weren't her. ~ Jenny Han
Jeremiah quotes by Jenny Han
The deeper truth is that reform, if it is real reform, is an exercise of love. Prophecy, if it is real prophecy, is an exercise of love. Amos, Hosea, and Jeremiah employed such harsh language in criticizing the children of Israel precisely because they thought more of the people than the people thought of themselves. The prophets were in love with, were possessed by, a vision of the dignity and destiny of those they addressed. The outrageousness of sin and failure was in direct proportion to the greatness of God's intent for his people. Prophecy was always an exercise of love, never of contempt, for those to whom the prophet addressed his criticism. ~ Richard John Neuhaus
Jeremiah quotes by Richard John Neuhaus
The bastards who dommed you before needed rope, and duct tape. All I need is a firm grip in your hair, my lips this close to your throat, and the sting of my palm across your ass. That's the difference, Precious. ~ Sai Marie Johnson
Jeremiah quotes by Sai Marie Johnson
According to all that God commanded [Noah], so he did. Noah did "according to all that God commanded him, so he did" (Genesis 6:22). Therein lies the key and secret to Noah's faith. When God told him to do something, he did it. He was a man who took God at His word. ~ David Jeremiah
Jeremiah quotes by David Jeremiah
On the third day after Jesus' own death, He came out of the grave to give the world a sign it cannot deny. For a man to predict His own death and resurrection was something only God could do. ~ David Jeremiah
Jeremiah quotes by David Jeremiah
We can face whatever circumstances await us with courage if we just reflect on God's faithfulness and place our confidence in His great power and loving purpose for our lives. ~ David Jeremiah
Jeremiah quotes by David Jeremiah
All we have to do is ask and He will give us the wisdom that we need to get through the storm. ~ David Jeremiah
Jeremiah quotes by David Jeremiah
It is very odd to be standing in a locked room in the Penitentiary, speaking with a strange man about France and Italy and Germany. A travelling man. He must be a wanderer, like Jeremiah the peddler. But Jeremiah travelled to earn his bread, and these other sorts of men are rich enough already. They go on voyages because they are curious. They amble around the world and stare at things, they sail across the oceans as if there's nothing to it at all, and if it goes ill with them in one place they simply pick up and move along to another. ~ Margaret Atwood
Jeremiah quotes by Margaret Atwood
Our attitude toward others reveals our genuine attitude toward God. ~ David Jeremiah
Jeremiah quotes by David Jeremiah
Century after century, we have prosecuted our insane conflicts from atop their backs, resting on their sturdy necks when we grew weary, eating their flesh when we were starving, disemboweling them and crawling inside their bodies when we were freezing. ~ John Jeremiah Sullivan
Jeremiah quotes by John Jeremiah Sullivan
Why were so few voices raised in the ancient world in protest against the ruthlessness of man? Why are human beings so obsequious, ready to kill and ready to die at the call of kings and chieftains? Perhaps it is because they worship might, venerate those who command might, and are convinced that it is by force that man prevails. The splendor and the pride of kings blind the people. The Mesopotamian, for example, felt convinced that authorities were always right: "The command of the palace, like the command of Anu, cannot be altered. The king's word is right; his utterance, like that of a god, cannot be changed!" The prophets repudiated the work as well as the power of man as an object of supreme adoration. They denounced "arrogant boasting" and "haughty pride" (Isa. 10:12), the kings who ruled the nations in anger, the oppressors (Isa. 14:4-6), the destroyers of nations, who went forth to inflict waste, ruin, and death (Jer. 4:7), the "guilty men, whose own might is their god" (Hab. 1: 11).

Their course is evil,
Their might is not right.
Jeremiah 23:10

The end of public authority is to realize the moral law, a task for which both knowledge and understanding as well as the possession of power are indispensable means. Yet inherent in power is the tendency to breed conceit. " . . . one of the most striking and one of the most pervasive features of the prophetic polemic [is] the denunciation and distrust of power in all its forms and guises. The h ~ Abraham Joshua Heschel
Jeremiah quotes by Abraham Joshua Heschel
Joci took a deep breath, "Earlier tonight when you were thanking people for
helping with the ride tomorrow. You called me baby. Do you remember that?"
Jeremiah looked at Joci and touched her face with his forefinger.
"Yes, I wanted you to know that I wanted you. And, I guess I wanted everyone
to know how I feel about you. ~ P.J. Fiala
Jeremiah quotes by P.J. Fiala
A noble heart is a thankful heart that loves to acknowledge whenever it has received any mercy. ~ Jeremiah Burroughs
Jeremiah quotes by Jeremiah Burroughs
If you do not influence them, someone else will. If you are not shaping their values, others will do it for you. The issue is not, Will my child be influenced? The issue is, Who will be that influence? Most parents I know prefer to wield the greatest influence in the lives of their children. They wisely want to make the major investment in their children's lives so that the values of their offspring largely reflect their own. That's the most basic rationale for investing ~ David Jeremiah
Jeremiah quotes by David Jeremiah
We may go to church once a week, but our Christian life is daily - step-by-step. ~ David Jeremiah
Jeremiah quotes by David Jeremiah
James teaches us that we can be victors instead of victims, if we will mentally prepare ourselves by: 1. celebrating the reason behind our trials; 2. calculating the results of our trials; 3. calling on God's resources in our trials; 4. considering our reactions to our trials; 5. contemplating the reward of our trials. ~ David Jeremiah
Jeremiah quotes by David Jeremiah
Every child is created uniquely by God. God puts a certain formula in the heart of every child. And it is the parents' challenge to figure out the combination. We need to spend time studying, looking, listening, and observing. ~ David Jeremiah
Jeremiah quotes by David Jeremiah
It's fairly simple. When can we pray? All the time. When should we praise God? Whenever we pray. ~ David Jeremiah
Jeremiah quotes by David Jeremiah
Instead of following your heart, you are choosing to lead to lead it. The world says to follow your heart, but if you are not it, then someone or something else is. The Bible says that "the heart is more deceitful than all else" (Jeremiah 17:9), and it will always pursue that which feels right at the moment. ~ Stephen Kendrick
Jeremiah quotes by Stephen Kendrick
Live as a credible witness. If our actions don't line up with the message we're proclaiming, we risk losing our credibility. ~ David Jeremiah
Jeremiah quotes by David Jeremiah
Although there is validity, I believe, in leaving a church where the leadership consistently presents false doctrine, I also see people who are offended by one remark from the pulpit or one perceived hurt flit to the next church to look for fault there. It's like the cartoon I saw of a skeleton dressed in women's clothes and sitting on a park bench; the caption read, 'Waiting for the perfect man.' There is no perfect church either. ~ David Jeremiah
Jeremiah quotes by David Jeremiah
If I become content by having my desire satisfied, that is only self-love; but when I am contented with the hand of God and am willing to be at His disposal, that comes from my love to God. ~ Jeremiah Burroughs
Jeremiah quotes by Jeremiah Burroughs
A girl's father is the first man in her life, and probably the most influential. ~ David Jeremiah
Jeremiah quotes by David Jeremiah
When God grabs you by the scruff of the neck then although theoretically you have a freedom to say 'no', in another sense, actually, you can't say no because it's like Jeremiah. 'God, you have cheated me. You called me to be a prophet against the people that I love, and all that I proclaim is words of doom and judgement.' And yet if I say "I will shut up", I can't. ~ Desmond Tutu
Jeremiah quotes by Desmond Tutu
All people are alike when they sleep."

Jeremiah Lopper paraphrasing Aristotle (p. 146) ~ Joan Bauer
Jeremiah quotes by Joan Bauer
Sometimes it helps to begin our prayers by confessing we don't feel like praying-and ask God to help us with our preference to be doing something else. ~ David Jeremiah
Jeremiah quotes by David Jeremiah
Anybody who imagines that an election can be won under these circumstances by banging on about William Ayers and Jeremiah Wright is ... to put it mildly ... severely under-estimating the electoral importance of pocketbook issues. We conservatives are sending a powerful, inadvertent message with this negative campaign against Barack Obama's associations and former associations: that we lack a positive agenda of our own and that we don't care about the economic issues that are worrying American voters. ~ David Frum
Jeremiah quotes by David Frum
Christian, how did you enjoy comfort before? Was the creature anything to you but a conduit, a pipe, that conveyed God's goodness to you? 'The pipe is cut off,' says God, 'come to me, the fountain, and drink immediately.' Though the beams are taken away, yet the sun remains the same in the firmament as ever it was. ~ Jeremiah Burroughs
Jeremiah quotes by Jeremiah Burroughs
If your mind is filled with the Word of God, then it can't be filled with impure thoughts. ~ David Jeremiah
Jeremiah quotes by David Jeremiah
One of the best things I've read about that inexplicably, but endlessly, fascinating group of people, the so-called Serious Collectors of 78s. Petrusich burrows into not just their personalities but the hunger that unites and drives their obsessions. She writes elegantly, and makes you think, and most important manages to hang onto her skepticism in the midst of her own collecting quest. ~ John Jeremiah Sullivan
Jeremiah quotes by John Jeremiah Sullivan
God is never early and never late. ~ David Jeremiah
Jeremiah quotes by David Jeremiah
His first coming He was wrapped in swadding clothes. In His second coming He will be clothed royally in a robe dipped in blood. common people. In His second coming He will be accompanied by the massive armies of heaven. In His first coming the door of the inn was closed to Him. In His second coming the door of the heavens will be opened to Him. In His first coming His voice was the tiny cry of a baby. In His second coming His voice will thunder as the sound of many waters. In His first coming, He was the lamp of God who came bringing salvation. In His second coming, He will be the Lion of the tribe of Judah who comes bringing ~ David Jeremiah
Jeremiah quotes by David Jeremiah
Surely people can now see that it is no accident that he, Obama, sat at the feet of the Rev. Jeremiah Wright for 20 years, that he is mother was a leftist activist and cultural Marxist, that his main early mentor was radical Frank Marshall Davis, that he was a member of the far-left New Party in Chicago, that his main vocation in life has been street organizing and agitation and that he didn't think the revolutionarily, transformative Warren court was liberal enough. ~ David Limbaugh
Jeremiah quotes by David Limbaugh
A godly man in the midst of the waves and storms that he meets with can see the glory of heaven before him and so contents himself. One drop of the sweetness of heaven is enough to take away all the sourness and bitterness of all the afflictions in the world. We know that one drop of sourness, or one drop of gall will make bitter a great deal of it; but if you put a spoonful of gall into a cup of sugar, it will embitter that. Now it is otherwise in heaven: one drop of sweetness will sweeten a great deal of sour affliction, but a great deal of sourness and gall will not embitter a soul who sees the glory of heaven that is to come. ~ Jeremiah Burroughs
Jeremiah quotes by Jeremiah Burroughs
When Christ returns, and only then, will the angel's message to the shepherds be totally fulfilled: Peace on earth, goodwill toward men. ~ David Jeremiah
Jeremiah quotes by David Jeremiah
I will weep and wail for the mountains and take up a lament concerning the desert pastures. They are desolate and untraveled, and the lowing of cattle is not heard. The birds of the air have fled and the animals are gone. ~ Jeremiah
Jeremiah quotes by Jeremiah
Thou hast gone on in all thy life hitherto, ever since thou wast born, in a continual opposition to God Himself, unto the infinite Lord, the eternal first being of all the world; thy life hath been nothing but enmity to this God: thou hast as directly opposed, and striven against, and resisted Him, as ever man did oppose, and resist, and strive with another man, and this thou hast done in the whole course of thy life: certainly there is more in this to humble a man than anything that can be spoken to shew him the evil of sin. ~ Jeremiah Burroughs
Jeremiah quotes by Jeremiah Burroughs
We are honored to have had the opportunity to serve our country under difficult circumstances. We are profoundly grateful to our Commander-in-Chief and to our nation for this day. God bless America. ~ Jeremiah Denton
Jeremiah quotes by Jeremiah Denton
People crave encouragement, and sometimes the greatest encouragement is the writing of words that endure. Perhaps you can pen a note of affirmation and approval to someone today. ~ David Jeremiah
Jeremiah quotes by David Jeremiah
They are trying to live, but they have no room to breathe. So they try harder and breathe less. ~ John Jeremiah Sullivan
Jeremiah quotes by John Jeremiah Sullivan
Among all the wise people of the nations and among all their kingdoms, there is no one like You. Jeremiah 10:7 ~ Beth Moore
Jeremiah quotes by Beth Moore
One of the great tragedies of my life is I had the misfortune of arriving in New York at the beginning of its end... but we cannot choose our time of place and I hurried to New York as fast as I could. ~ Jeremiah Moss
Jeremiah quotes by Jeremiah Moss
the causes of poverty as put forth in the Bible are remarkably balanced. The Bible gives us a matrix of causes. One factor is oppression, which includes a judicial system weighted in favor of the powerful (Leviticus 19:15), or loans with excessive interest (Exodus 22:25-27), or unjustly low wages (Jeremiah 22:13; James 5:1-6). Ultimately, however, the prophets blame the rich when extremes of wealth and poverty in society appear (Amos 5:11-12; Ezekiel 22:29; Micah 2:2; Isaiah 5:8). As we have seen, a great deal of the Mosaic legislation was designed to keep the ordinary disparities between the wealthy and the poor from becoming aggravated and extreme. Therefore, whenever great disparities arose, the prophets assumed that to some degree it was the result of selfish individualism rather than concern with the common good. ~ Timothy J. Keller
Jeremiah quotes by Timothy J. Keller
And rely on Him with 100 percent of your faith for 100 percent of your life throughout 100 percent of your tomorrows. He will give you a peace no thief can ever steal. ~ David Jeremiah
Jeremiah quotes by David Jeremiah
There is power in a Lady who trusts in God-a lady who has put all her eggs in God's basket. Women possess some gift that touches the heart of God. This gift is so powerful that Jeremiah, the weeping prophet who was known for his great compassion found himself needing the intercession of women to tap into this power. The Lord asked Him to send for the women to let them take up wailing as God knew His ears are open to the cry of distressed women ~ Mary Maina
Jeremiah quotes by Mary Maina
We can still turn the world upside down. We can be living torches for Christ today. ~ David Jeremiah
Jeremiah quotes by David Jeremiah
The Lord's Prayer reminds us that God longs for His people to communicate with Him, not just in church on Sunday, but wherever we are and whatever our need. ~ David Jeremiah
Jeremiah quotes by David Jeremiah
On the way out Jeremiah turned around and danced a quick jig for me and i couldn't help it, I laughed. Over his shoulder Conrad said, "Good night Belly."
And that was it. I was in love ~ Jenny Han
Jeremiah quotes by Jenny Han
that the strong beams of the sun of prosperity upon many men make them to be leprous. ~ Jeremiah Burroughs
Jeremiah quotes by Jeremiah Burroughs
If you're unhappy with another person's behavior, pray about it and be honest and open in dealing with it in the right kind of way. ~ David Jeremiah
Jeremiah quotes by David Jeremiah
Every believer is commanded to be plugged in to a local church. ~ David Jeremiah
Jeremiah quotes by David Jeremiah
I love you." I laugh. "You already said that." "I've never said it before. I like it ... I think I'll keep saying it. ~ Miranda Kenneally
Jeremiah quotes by Miranda Kenneally
We can embrace change by knowing we serve an unchanging God. ~ David Jeremiah
Jeremiah quotes by David Jeremiah
He was the kind of guy who was always telling you what kind of guy he was. ~ John Jeremiah Sullivan
Jeremiah quotes by John Jeremiah Sullivan
It gets to be a problem when I decide one position should be the law for everybody. In public life, we [people] have to find a way to live together even though we disagree - and some things we will never agree on. But we've got to leave this I'm-going-to-kill-you-because-you-don't-believe-what-I-believe attitude behind. ~ Jeremiah Wright
Jeremiah quotes by Jeremiah Wright
The cheerful trumpet strains of Purcell's "Prince of Denmark March" sang out as Prince Charles, flanked by Princes Andrew and Edward, strode confidently up the aisle, smiling and nodding to his friends in the congregation. He seemed very much at ease as he took his place to await his bride.
Then . . . we heard the trumpet fanfare that heralded Diana's entrance. We could not see her arrival from our seats to the side. Very clearly, though, we could hear the murmurs and gasps of approval inside the church along with the cheers and applause outside, as the entire world first glimpsed the bride in her fairy-tale dress.
Diana looked an absolute vision in her cloud of tulle, taffeta, and lace, with the Spencer diamond tiara sparkling above her veil. Lovely, innocent, and demure, she more than met her subjects' expectations that glorious morning.
Holding her father's arm, Diana progressed slowly and beautifully up the aisle to the rustle of silk and the scrutiny of the congregation. I recognized the processional march as Jeremiah Clarke's "Trumpet Voluntary" from my own wedding. She appeared outwardly composed, almost deadly calm, with an endearing tentative quality to her smile. I felt certain she was trembling inside. I was quaking in sympathy for her.
It may have been simply the effect of the artificial light, but I thought Diana looked rather pale and tense under her veil. Even Pat noticed. He turned to me and whispered, "She looks as nervous as you did, almo ~ Mary Robertson
Jeremiah quotes by Mary Robertson
Contentment is not by addition but by subtraction: seeking to add a thing will not bring contentment. Instead, subtracting from your desires until you are satisfied only with Christ brings contentment. ~ Jeremiah Burroughs
Jeremiah quotes by Jeremiah Burroughs
The reason twenty-nine feet is such a common length for RVs, I presume, is that once a vehicle gets much longer, you need a special permit to drive it. That would mean forms and fees, possibly even background checks. But show up at any RV joint with your thigh stumps lashed to a skateboard, crazily waving your hooks-for-hands, screaming you want that twenty-nine-footer out back for a trip you ain't sayin' where, and all they want to know is: Credit or debit, tiny sir? ~ John Jeremiah Sullivan
Jeremiah quotes by John Jeremiah Sullivan
Destiny brought two souls, Jeremiah and Lailah Akita, to light the world with love. ~ Lailah Gifty Akita
Jeremiah quotes by Lailah Gifty Akita
Don't threaten me, you piece of filth. ~ M.J. Carter
Jeremiah quotes by M.J. Carter
A neighborhood is an emotional ecosystem, and when it is destroyed by gentrification, it's trauma. ~ Jeremiah Moss
Jeremiah quotes by Jeremiah Moss
The only theism worthy of our respect believes in God not because of the way the world is made but in spite of that. The only theism that is no less profound than the Buddha's atheism is that represented in the Bible by Job and Jeremiah. ~ Walter Kaufmann
Jeremiah quotes by Walter Kaufmann
Our ownership in Christ is documented in the Word of God, and our names are registered in the Lamb's Book of Life. ~ David Jeremiah
Jeremiah quotes by David Jeremiah
The enjoyments of elegant life you early chose to abandon, preferring to wander for many successive years over the rudest portions of Europe and Asia-regions new to Science-in the hope, happily realized, of winning new truths.
By a rare union of favourable circumstances, and of personal qualifications equally rare, you have thus been enabled to become the recognized Interpreter and Historian (not without illustrious aid) of the Silurian Period. ~ John Jeremiah Bigsby
Jeremiah quotes by John Jeremiah Bigsby
We are God's productions, His compositions. ~ David Jeremiah
Jeremiah quotes by David Jeremiah
The doctrine of Satan is that all religions are equally valid, that all paths lead to God, that God is impersonal, unknowable, and it is therefore irrelevant to Him what we call Him or how we worship Him. If Allah and God are one and the same, then wouldn't the worship of the Hindu chief gods, Vishnu and Shiva, also be the worship of Allah and God, only by a different name? Pretty soon, everybody is God ... Which is the same as saying that nobody is.35 ~ David Jeremiah
Jeremiah quotes by David Jeremiah
We see how much a man has, and therefore we envy him; did we see how little he enjoys, we should rather pity him. ~ Jeremiah Seed
