God wants us to be real men and women, and if we profess to be what we are not, God knows all about us. God hates sham. ~ Dwight L. Moody

In the new covenant, God doesn't want us to be blessed when we obey the law and cursed when we fail. Doesn't such a system sound awfully similar to the old covenant?

You're a product of our language, and how our laws are and how we believe our God wants us. Every bitty molecule about you has already been thought out by some million people before you. Anything you can do is boring and old and perfectly okay. You're safe because you're so trapped inside your culture. Anything you can conceive of is fine because you can conceive of it. You can't imagine any way to escape. There's no way you can get out.The world is your cradle and your trap. ~ Chuck Palahniuk

But we must focus our attention on the people in greatest need. ~ Margaret Chan

One of the things I've learned as I've studied the principles in God's Word is this, that God wants us to prosper. But, the way He determines the level of our prosperity is based on how much we can let go of and still smile. So, if you can't release that money and still smile, then you can't be trusted with any more than you have right now ... If you can prove to God that you don't love money God doesn't care how much you have. ~ Mark Gorman

Politics is democracy's way of handling public business. We won't get the type of country in the kind of world we want unless people take part in the public's business. ~ David R. Brower

You can't ask for what you want unless you know what it is. A lot of people don't know what they want or they want much less than they deserve. First you have figure out what you want.

When God does a miracle somehow you have to respond. When God does things for you - maybe we don't deserve them and we can never really repay God but God really wants us to respond to them. He doesn't want us to stay the same. So, for us to respond to what God has done in our lives is probably the same way he would want anyone to do - "Just tell people what I've done for you and what you've seen and heard." That's what we're doing. ~ Todd Burpo

The Bible tells us to love our neighbors, and also to love our enemies; probably because generally they are the same people. ~ G.K. Chesterton

[Jn 14.12] God wants us all to have an audacity of faith that dares to believe for all that is set forth in the word. ~ Smith Wigglesworth

We pray when there's nothing else we can do, but God wants us to pray before we do anything at all. ~ Oswald Chambers

Everyone has a right to be interested in himself, and I am confident that God wants us to be interested in ourselves first; that is, the first soul that anyone should bring to God should be his own soul. We cannot do very much for anyone else until we have first done something for ourselves. That is, it is pretty difficult to give someone else an education unless we have some education ourselves. It is pretty hard to get someone else to think unless we ourselves are thinkers. ~ Sterling W. Sill

God wants us to be in joy, God wants us to be happy. ~ Elizabeth Gilbert

The Lord wants us to be filled with hope-not just because it points us to a brighter tomorrow, but because it changes the quality of our lives. ~ Dwan J. Young

God doesn't want our success; He wants us. He doesn't demand our achievements; He demands our obedience. ~ Charles Colson

If prosperity means God wants us to be blessed and healthy and have good relationships then yes, I'm a prosperity teacher. But if it's about money, no, I never preach about money. I probably stay away from it more than normal because televangelists get a bad name. People put me in that category because I do believe that God does want us to be happy, healthy, and whole. ~ Joel Osteen

Don't market yourself. Editors and readers don't know what they want until they see it. Scratch what itches. Write what you need to write, feed the hunger for meaning in your life. Play at the serious questions of life and death. ~ Donald Murray

God doesn't want something from us. He simply wants us. ~ C.S. Lewis

God wants us to seek Him more than anything else, even more than we seek answers to prayer. When we come to God in prayer, sometimes our hearts are so full of what we want that we leave God out. Our minds become consumed with the gift rather than the giver. ~ Charles Stanley

A third myth is that men think that women like guys who are dangerous. As a result, guys will often smoke cigarettes, drink too much, and ride a motorcycle without a helmet. The reality? Women don't like guys who are dangerous. Women want us to think that because women are trying to kill us. ~ Dennis Miller

There is something infinitely better than happily-ever-after. There is happiness. Happiness is a living, dynamic thing, Eve, and has to be worked on every moment for the rest of our lives. It is a far more exciting prospect than that silly static idea of a happily-ever-after. Would you not agree? - Aidan Bedwyn ~ Mary Balogh

God knows what we are going through when we grieve, and He wants to assure us of His love and concern. He also wants us to turn to Him and bring our heartaches and burdens to Him. ~ Billy Graham

I once heard somebody say that God has closed a door on an opportunity they had hoped for. But I've always wondered if, when we want to do something that we know is right and good, God places that desire deep in our hearts because He wants to for us and it honors Him. Maybe there are times when we think a door has been closed and, instead of misinterpreting the circumstances, God want us to kick it down. Or perhaps just sit outside of it long enough until somebody tells us we can come in. ~ Bob Goff

I want us to be able to preserve our level of prosperity. We must constantly remind ourselves that Germany has been eating into its capital. It is only through successful management that we can once again secure our foundation of prosperity and social security. ~ Angela Merkel

People ... become so preoccupied with the means by which an end is achieved, as eventually to mistake it for the end. Just as money, which is a means of satisfying wants, comes to be regarded by a miser as the sole thing to be worked for, leaving the wants unsatisfied; so the conduct men have found preferable because most conducive to happiness, has come to be thought of as intrinsically preferable: not only to be made a proximate end (which it should be), but to be made an ultimate end, to the exclusion of the true ultimate end. ~ Herbert Spencer

God does not want us to be living in the past, in shame, in fear, or in the future, in worry. He wants us to be living in the present, in now, with Him. ~ Rebecca St. James

I got to go to New York Comic-Con. I've never been and I've heard it's crazy, so I'd love to see it. To be quite honest, I'd like for people to want us to be there, too. I'm hoping. I'm knocking on wood, so we'll see. ~ Steven Yeun

Obsessing over the future is not how God wants us to live, because showing us the future is not God's way. ~ Kevin DeYoung

Our fans want us to be happy and if that means being married or having a girlfriend, they are okay with that. Of course, in this industry it is a bit harder to have normal relationships, but it is possible. ~ A. J. McLean

Fear forces us to spend our lives dealing with it, ostensibly to overcome it. But that is a trick. Only fear (the illusion of separation) would want us to work to be unafraid, precisely because it is not possible for a separate self to be unafraid! ~ Cheri Huber

We don't want to be free from fear. All that we want to do is to play games with it and talk about freeing ourselves from fear. ~ U.G. Krishnamurti

Whenever our sins press hard against us, whenever Satan would drive us to despair, we must hold up this shield, that God does not want us to be overwhelmed in everlasting destruction, for He has ordained His Son to be the salvation of the world. ~ John Calvin

I once heard a theologian remark that in the Gospels people approached Jesus with a question 183 times whereas he replied with a direct answer only three times. Instead, he responded with a different question, a story, or some other indirection. Evidently Jesus wants us to work out answers on our own, using the principles that he taught and lived. ~ Philip Yancey

I preach that anybody can improve their lives. I think God wants us to be prosperous. I think he wants us to be happy. To me, you need to have money to pay your bills. I think God wants us to send our kids to college. I think he wants us to be a blessing to other people. But I don't think I'd say God wants us to be rich. It's all relative, isn't it? ~ Joel Osteen

Me: u + me = wild animal sex 2nite?

She responds right away. Good, she's still up.

Her: u = tempting – me = already in bed ÷ sleep.

Me: Why the division sign??

Her: I don't know. I was trying to answer in math. Bottom line: I'm in bed.

Me: Perfect. That's right where I want u to be. I'll be there in 45. ~ Elle Kennedy

I want us to be a connected team-on and off the field. ~ Aaron Rodgers

God gave these ten laws for our good. He wants us to be our very best and to get the most that is possible our of life. ~ Charles L. Allen

Want u, he typed out, but didn't send it.
OK, he sent back, and wondered stupidly if Ben would try and discern any hidden meaning in those two tiny letters. ~ Lisa Henry

I emphasize listening. We strive to hear what other people want us to hear, even though they don't always come out and say it directly. ~ Bob Galvin

God doesn't want us to live timid, shy, weak, wimpy, fearful, boring lives. He wants us to be bold, con dent and courageous, unafraid to try new things. And it never ceases to amaze me what God will do through a person who simply steps out in faith. ~ Joyce Meyer

When we do what God wants us to do, we are blessed, we are spiritually healthy. ~ Donald Miller

God created us to be channels of blessing, but our ability to receive the resources with which He wants us to bless others, depends on our being able to give then away - freely, faithfully, generously. ~ Jack W. Hayford

The question should not be 'What would Jesus do?' but rather, more dangerously, 'What would Jesus have me do?' The onus is not on Jesus but on us, for Jesus did not come to ask semidivine human beings to do impossible things. He came to ask human beings to live up to their full humanity; he wants us to live in the full implication of our human gifts, and that is far more demanding. ~ Peter J. Gomes
