I heard about the book and I said, 'Oh my god, I've got to read this book,' and I didn't know that a white woman wrote it. Nobody said that to me, they just said, 'The Help - Oh my god, you've got to read it.' Everyone failed to mention it was a white woman, I think, because nobody really wants to talk about race.
If there is one God, then there is only His way to attain Him, not another. One must follow that way and reject the other. Worship not him who is born only to die, but Him who is eternal and is contained in the whole universe.

Sometimes I think fiction exists to model the way God might think of us, if God had the time and inclination to do so.
For some, the belief in a Young Earth seems to be based on a kind of intuition or faith in what they believe an omnipotent God should do. It reasons that if God is all powerful, then certainly He would not have taken millions of years to make the earth.
Forgiveness is God's command.
I was a confused young girl with so much tragedy. Sometimes when you're going through stuff, the last person you're thinking exists is God. I mean, it was my confusion, the anger that was in my heart, all that drama. But thank God I know God now, okay?
Whatever it is that can help to bring God close is something to be revered.
'God' - as revealed in his book of edicts and narratives is practically an idiot. He has nothing to say that any sensible person should want to listen to.
The gifts given to us by God must not be relinquished to those who speak ill of them and who are moved by envy or ignorance.
The sheik is, thank God, still alive and this hurts Bush who promised to his people to kill Osama.
This is why the ultimate reason of things must lie in a necessary substance, in which the differentiation of the changes only exists eminently as in their source; and this is what we call God.
God has blessed me. I've been given a lot. I'm at peace with myself. It's time to give back.
You hear a lot about God these days: God, the beneficent; God, the all-great; God, the Almighty; God, the most powerful; God, the giver of life; God, the creator of death. I mean, we're hearing about God all the time, so we better learn how to deal with it. But if we know anything about God, God is arbitrary.
Because of total depravity, you and I were desperate for God's grace before we were saved. Because of total depravity, you and I remain desperate for God's grace even after we're saved.

God is a great God! I want to encourage you to expect great things from Him.

Hope is some extraordinary spiritual grace that God gives us to control our fears, not to oust them.
The man who seeks to please God is the man who people are pleased with. The man who seeks to please others won't satisfy anyone.
I don't do quagmires.

I pray to God every day that he makes me the biggest superstar, but before that, I ask God to make me a good actor. Being a star is hard, but being an actor is even harder. I want to be both before I am done.
It is incomprehensible that God should exist, and it is incomprehensible that he should not exist.
