“The world men inhabit is rather bleak. It is a world full of doubt and confusion, where vulnerability must be hidden, not shared; where competition, not co-operation, is the order of the day; where men sacrifice the possibility of knowing their own children and sharing in their upbringing, for the sake of a job they may have chosen by chance, which may not suit them and which in many cases dominates their lives to the exclusion of much else.” MenWorldMayChildrenJobsOrderChanceCasesKnowingDoubtSacrificePossibilityCompetitionSakeChosenConfusionSuitsOperationsVulnerabilityUpbringingExclusionBleak Author:Anna Ford
“As the idea imparted by the term Cataclysm, Catastrophe, or Revolution, is extremely vague, and may comprehend any thing you choose to imagine, it answers for the time very well as an explanation; that is, it stops further inquiry. But it also has had the disadvantage of effectually stopping the advance of science, by involving it in obscurity and confusion.” WellsMayIdeasScienceTermImaginationAnswersImagineRevolutionConfusionExplanationYou ChooseVagueCatastropheStoppingInquiryObscurityDisadvantagesInvolving Author:George Julius Poulett Scrope

“To better understand God we must first shatter our own idea of God - maybe even day after day. Maybe he's too great to stay compressed in the human mind. Maybe he splits it wide open; this is why pretentious intellectualism so often fails to comprehend the concept of God: it is only accepting of what it can explain while in the process finding higher sources offensive. What we may confidently assert is that faith is the opening that allows God, this unpredictable, unseen power, to travel in and out of the mind without all the pains of confusion.” MindFirstsHumansMayIdeasPainProcessAcceptingFailingSourceHigherFindingsConceptsWideOpeningConfusionHuman MindSplitsOffensiveUnseenUnpredictablePretentiousIntellectualism Author:Criss Jami
“There is a time when every person who encounters Jesus, who believes Jesus is the Son of God, decides that they will spend their life following Him. Some people, like the Apostle Paul, make this decision the minute they meet Him, the minute they become a Christian. Others, like the Apostle Peter, endure years of half-hearted commitment and spiritual confusion before leaping in with all their passion. Still others may enjoy some benefits of God's love and grace without entering into the true joy of a marriage with their maker.” PeopleYearsBelieveMayPersonsStillsChristianSpiritualJoyPassionJesusEnjoyDecisionHalfGraceMinutesSonBenefitsCommitmentEndureFollowingConfusionEncountersMakersPeterEnteringHeartedApostlesGod's LoveTrue JoyApostle PaulHalf Hearted Book:Miller 3-in-1: Blue Like Jazz, Through Painted Deserts, Searching for God Source: Miller 3-in-1: Blue Like Jazz, Through Painted Deserts, Searching for God
