We are only mortal flesh.

We need to develop new strategies to overcome every challenge. And by faith we can graciously triumph.
The Lord lit my life, with the light of your love.
In a universe in which past, present, and future came into existence all at once, complete from beginning to end, with all possible outcomes of every life woven through the tapestry, there is no chance, only choice, no luck, but only consequences.
~ Dean Koontz
Do you ever wonder about the fairy tales of life?
I live every day as if I can die any moment.
The more we grow in faith, the more we grow in love.
Despite my height, ignorance, heartbreaks, insecurity, criticism, competition, my skin color, that voice in my head that says 'No way', bad luck, a tight budget, insults, fear, flaws, failure and opposition. I believe in myself.
~ Manasa Rao
O Lord, grant my dearest husband, Jeremiah Nii Mama Akita, the spirit of prayer and the grace to read thy word.
Whatever your situation, there exist hope
Even in the broken state, my mind find waysto connect with you.
~ Anjum Choudhary
It could be that God has absconded but spread, as our vision and understanding of the universe have spread, to a fabric of spirit and sense so grand and subtle, so powerful in a new way, that we can only feel blindly of its hem.
~ Annie Dillard
Life leaves no one behind unless one's beliefs do.
~ Hafiz
We all have that divine moment, when our lives are transformed by the knowledge of the truth.
My only armor is my belief that life has meaning...
You are an atheist if you do not believe in yourself.
~ Swaraj Priyadarshi
Nothingness...there in this placewhere nothingness takesbut for the glimmera steadfast shimmerall would be consumed...

I assume you are the sort of person who would go backstage after the opera in hopes of hearing the prima donna crying on the telephone, or walking in on the baritone fellating the basso buffo. I respect that-I was always the same way myself-though I suspect you are not very happy. Happiness is the province of those who ask few questions. I remember, even before this was visited upon me, how I envied those who eagerly did what they were told: those who married without complaint at father's behest; those who looked up rather than sideways in church; those, in short, who honestly believed in God, good kings, and righteous wars.
~ Christopher Buehlman
You have to take this with you too,” she said, opening a box and holding up a silver necklace with the Syriac cross (a crucifix with a budding flower shape on each tip) dangling from it. “My mother gave it to me mother, who passed it to me. Now is the right time to give it to you. Not just because you’re leaving and will need something that always connects you to your roots, but also because tonight we remember her.
~ Zack Love
God forgive me for what I’ve done. God forgive me for what I will do. And God forgive me for what I can’t do because my religion won’t let me
~ Stanley Victor Paskavich
Yes, stop your beliefs for a few moments now and then and Be-Life.
Whether you lay cold in the ground or warm in an urn the turmoils of life aren't a concern. For some this may be the perfect rhyme except for those you leave behind...
God is like an umbrella of illusion and belief, In rainy days we use him, in sunny days we forget him.
~ Debasish Mridha
Things happen, and nothing is for sure, but you just have to keep going, believing that one day, you'll find something that is.
~ A.j. Darkholme
Anything you don’t want to deal with can always be written off as being “in the past” and ignored, but in doing so, you sweep it under a rug where it doesn't go away with time – it becomes time itself, and takes on the illusion of life as we think we know it.
What you withhold in this life will be withheld from you in the next.
Understand that by giving something a name, you own it. I find that by naming it, you give yourself a sense of purpose. Like wanting to become a doctor or lawyer or writer for instance, don’t hide in the shadows and wait for it to happen, because the chances of it spontaneously happening are next to none, trust me. You actually have to put yourself out there and commit to it by giving it a name. And you achieve this by simply saying, I WILL become a ‘this’ or ‘that’ or whatever it is that you want. Because you see, if you own it, nothing anyone can say or do will be able to take it away from you; because YOU gave it a name and thus, it belongs to you.
~ Charles Mackriel
Hopelessness is advance failure in a disguised envelope. People are crippled to have bed-ridden dreams just because they don't believe they can take progressive steps with those dreams.
~ Israelmore Ayivor
you don't want to be hurt that's why you throw your fellow sheep away yes you will no longer be hurt but the sheep you throw away is now walking to dark forest where a hungry pack of wolves are waiting, where he will face death.
~ Darwin Araman Ergina
If you believe in something, then you shouldn’t give up on it.
~ Harry Styles
I believe the difficulty that lies in growth, is the struggle of letting go of all you know to learn about the unknown. When in all actuality the unknown that you're learning about is yourself.
~ Turcois Ominek
That’s life. It’s a series of knock-down, drag-out fights with yourself and others that will leave you lying on the ground bruised and bloody and drooling all over your shag carpeting. But all that doesn’t define you, your reaction to it does. Your environment doesn’t make you who you are, your choices — your beliefs, do.
~ J.s.b. Morse
Life without God is a long and fruitless search for enjoyment, meaning, and fulfillment.
~ Jim George
All your life should be seen and measured in the light of eternity.
My dad had once told me a definition of faith and I had not forgotten it: 'Faith is to believe something you do not see. The result of that faith is to see what you believed'.
~ Braam Malherbe
We cannot carve or forcibly preserveor cultivate belief. If it will grow, it growsas we do - mostly after we have fallen
