“What healthy religion is saying is that the real life is both now and later. You have to taste the Real first of all now. The constant pattern, however, is that most Christians either move both backwards (religion as nostalgia) or into the distant future (religion as carrot on the stick) and consistently avoid where everything really happens and mattersthe present moment.” FirstsRealMatterMomentsHappensChristianMovingLife IsFaithHealthyTasteConstantSticksPatternsNostalgiaReal LifePresent MomentConsistentlyBackwardsCarrotsNow And Later Author:Richard Rohr
“The Christian life is not a constant high. I have my moments of deep discouragement. I have to go to God in prayer with tears in my eyes, and say, 'O God, forgive me,' or 'Help me.'” LifeMomentsGodHelpingEyeChristianSpiritualLife IsFaithChallengesReligiousPrayerPowerfulLordTearsForgivenessForgivingConstantChristian InspirationalChristian LifeHelp MeTrust In GodGodlyCommitment To GodConfidence In GodDiscouragementIntimacy With GodForgive MeGod HelpGod LifeConnecting With GodConversations With GodGod Help MeTalking To GodGod ForgivesAsking For HelpChristian GodLord Forgive MeGod Forgive MeTears In My EyesGod And Life Author:Billy Graham
“God is bigger than time, dates, and appointments. He wants you to move through this day with a quiet heart, an inward assurance that He is in control, a peaceful certainty that your life is in His hands, a deep trust in His plan and purposes, and a thankful disposition, toward all that He allows. He wants you to put your faith in Him, not in a timetable. He wants you to wait on Him and wait for Him. In His perfect way He will put everything together, see to every detail... arrange every circumstance... and order every step to bring to pass what He has for you.” WayWantLifeBelieveHeartGodHandsChristianTogetherMovingLife IsPurposeFaithOrderBeliefWaitingReligiousPerfectLordStepsPlansTrustConfidenceCircumstancesQuietBiggerDetailsChristian InspirationalPeacefulCertaintyThis DayHave FaithTrust In GodInwardDispositionAssuranceCommitment To GodEvery StepConfidence In GodAppointmentsGreatness Of GodGod Within UsKeep The FaithGod Is In ControlKeep BelievingThank You GodGod Has A PlanInstruments Of GodTimetablesWait For HimPleasing GodHave A Little FaithQuiet Heart Author:Roy Lessin
