Believe there is a great power silently working all things for good, behave yourself and never mind the rest.
You were made by God and for God and until you understand that, life will never make sense.
Faith is universal. Our specific methods for understanding it are arbitrary. Some of us pray to Jesus, some of us go to Mecca, some of us study subatomic particles. In the end we are all just searching for truth, that which is greater than ourselves.
My soul is in the sky.
I believe in intuitions and inspirations...I sometimes FEEL that I am right. I do not KNOW that I am.
If we can just let go and trust that things will work out they way they're supposed to, without trying to control the outcome, then we can begin to enjoy the moment more fully. The joy of the freedom it brings becomes more pleasurable than the experience itself.
As a well spent day brings happy sleep, so life well used brings happy death.
Work without love is slavery.
When you get to the end of all the light you know and it's time to step into the darkness of the unknown, faith is knowing that one of two things shall happen: either you will be given something solid to stand on, or you will be taught how to fly.
Faith is the bird that feels the light and sings when the dawn is still dark.
Faith consists in believing what reason cannot.
Faith is walking face-first and full-speed into the dark. If we truly knew all the answers in advance as to the meaning of life and the nature of God and the destiny of our souls, our belief would not be a leap of faith and it would not be a courageous act of humanity; it would just be... a prudent insurance policy.
The most confused you will ever get is when you try to convince your heart and spirit of something your mind knows is a lie.
No, I would not want to live in a world without dragons, as I would not want to live in a world without magic, for that is a world without mystery, and that is a world without faith.
The Simple Path Silence is Prayer Prayer is Faith Faith is Love Love is Service The Fruit of Service is Peace
Love meant jumping off a cliff and trusting that a certain person would be there to catch you at the bottom.
Faith is about doing. You are how you act, not just how you believe.
Some things have to be believed to be seen.
Your children are the greatest gift God will give to you, and their souls the heaviest responsibility He will place in your hands. Take time with them, teach them to have faith in God. Be a person in whom they can have faith. When you are old, nothing else you've done will have mattered as much.
Why must people kneel down to pray? If I really wanted to pray I’ll tell you what I'd do. I'd go out into a great big field all alone or in the deep, deep woods and I'd look up into the sky—up—up—up—into that lovely blue sky that looks as if there was no end to its blueness. And then I'd just feel a prayer.
