I am sure as I live that nothing is so near to me as God. God is nearer to me than I am to myself.
Meister Eckhart

The last and greatest lesson that the soul has to learn is the fact that God, and God alone, is enough for all its needs This is the lesson that all His dealings with us are meant to teach; and this is the crowning discovery of our whole Christian life. God is enough!
Hannah Whitall Smith

Let God have you, and let God love you- and don’t be surprised if your heart begins to hear music you’ve never heard and your feet learn to dance as never before.
Max Lucado

God sees hearts as we see faces.

George Herbert

Holiness involves friendship with God. There has to be a moment in our relationship with God when he ceases to be just a Sunday acquaintance and becomes a weekday friend.
Basil Hume

The spirituality of my childhood is the one I would most like to have restored. It was pure and fresh and honest. I read God everywhere!
Macrina Wiederkehr

Every single creature is full of God and is a book about God.
Meister Eckhart

You can never prove God; you can only find Him.

Inside the will of God there is no failure. Outside the will of God there is no success.
Bernard Edinger

We are doing God next year. Please send all details and pamphlets.

Letter from a British schoolgirl to the Anglican Church Information Office

A missionary told how she was once describing the loving character of God to a gathering of Chinese women. As she told of the Father’s love, compassion, and mercy with great enthusiasm, one of the Chinese women turned to her neighbor and said, “Haven’t I often told you that there ought to be a God like that?”

Unless you have found God in your own soul, the whole world will seem meaningless to you.
Rabindranath Tagore

A deep and sober daily concern to please God is the rarest of rarities.
Vance Havner

If God’s justice could be recognized as just by human comprehension, it would not be divine.
Martin Luther

God’s thoughts, His will, His love, His judgements are all man’s home. To think His thoughts, to choose His will, to love His loves, to judge His judgements, and thus to know that He is in us, is to be at home.
George MacDonald

Pray remember what I have recommended to you, which is, to think often on God, by day, by night, and even in diversions. He is always near you and with you; leave Him not alone. You would think it rude to leave a friend alone who came to visit you; why then must God be neglected? Do not then forget Him; this is the glorious employment of a Christian; in a word, this is our profession. If we do not know it we must learn it.
Brother Lawrence

Our dependence upon God ought to be so entire and absolute that we should never think it necessary, in any kind of distress, to have recourse to human consolations.
Thomas a Kempis

It was when I was happiest that I longed most. The sweetest thing in all my life has been the longing to find the place where all the beauty came from.
C. S. Lewis

Whoever does not see God in every place does not see God in any place.
Menachem Mendel

May you grow to be as beautiful as God meant you to be when He thought of you first.
George MacDonald

He knows God rightly who knows Him everywhere.
Meister Eckhart

Our God, our help in ages past,
Our hope for years to come,
Our shelter from the stormy blast,
And our eternal home.
Isaac Watts

There is a silence in the beauty of the universe which is like a noise when compared with the silence of God.
Simone Weil

There are strange ways of serving God;
You sweep a room or turn a sod,
And suddenly, to your surprise,
You hear the whirr of seraphim,
And find you’re under God’s own eyes
And building palaces for him.
Hermann Hagedorn

As well might a gnat seek to drink in the ocean, as a finite creature to comprehend the Eternal God.
Charles Spurgeon

There’s a difference between knowing God and knowing about God. When you truly know God, you have energy to serve him, boldness to share him, and contentment in him.
J. I. Packer

Your God is too small.
J. B. Phillips

God didn’t want me to do more for Him.  He wanted me to be more with Him.
Bruce Wilkinson

Anyone can count the seeds in an apple, but only God can count the number of apples in a seed.
Robert Schuller

For every step you take toward God, God takes two steps toward you; and if you come to God walking, God comes to you running.
James Martin

With God, even when nothing is happening – something is happening. Reubin Welch

God is here. Wherever we are, God is here. There is no place, there can be no place, where He is not.
A. W. Tozer

We need never shout across the spaces to an absent God. He is nearer than our own soul, closer than our most secret thoughts.
A. W. Tozer

The universe is one of God’s thoughts.
Johann Schiller

What comes into our minds when we think about God is the most important thing about us.
A. W. Tozer

The God of the infinite is the God of the infinitesimal.
Blaise Pascal

An infinite God can give all of Himself to each of His children. He does not distribute Himself that each may have a part, but to each one He gives all of Himself as fully as if there were no others.
A. W. Tozer

I looked at God and He looked at me, and we were one forever.
C. H. Spurgeon

It is God to whom and with whom we travel, and while He is the End of our journey, He is also at every stopping place.
Elisabeth Elliot

The light of God surrounds me;
The love of God enfolds me;
The power of God protects me;
The presence of God watches over me.
Wherever I am, God is.
James Freeman

God’s center is everywhere.  His circumference is nowhere.
Thomas Watson

A unit joined to infinity adds nothing to it any more than one foot added to infinite length.  The finite is swallowed up by the infinite and becomes pure zero.  So are our minds before God.
Blaise Pascal

The enjoyment of God is the only happiness with which our souls can be satisfied.  To go to heaven, fully to enjoy God, is infinitely better than the most pleasant accommodations here.  Fathers and mothers, husbands, wives, or children, or the company of earthly friends, are but shadows; but God is the substance.  These are but scattered beams, but God is the sun.  These are but streams.  But God is the ocean.
Jonathan Edwards

Silence is the first language of God; all else is a poor translation.
Thomas Merton

In every place where you find the imprint of men’s feet there am I.
The Talmud

The first of all beautiful things is the continual possession of God.
Gregory of Nazianzus

God is as great in minuteness as He is in magnitude.
Charles Caleb Colton

That which is infinite is as much above what is great as it is above what is small.  Thus God, being infinitely great, He is as much above kings as He is above beggars; He is as much above the highest angel as He is above the meanest worm.
Jonathan Edwards

God is the most obligated being that there is.  He is obligated by his own nature.  He is infinite in his wisdom; therefore he can never do anything that is unwise.  He is infinite in his justice; therefore he can never do anything that is unjust.  He is infinite in his goodness; therefore he can never do anything that is not good.  He is infinite in his truth; therefore it is impossible that he should lie.
J. Gresham Machen

What we believe about God is the most important thing about us.
A. W. Tozer 

It is impossible to be too preoccupied with God, and it is only as we fill our hearts and minds with him that we become melted out of our likeness and moulded into his.
John Blanchard

He is not a God far off, but one who may be witnessed and possessed.
Margaret Fell Fox

God can never be outmaneuvered, taken by surprise, or caught at a disadvantage.  He is a God who knows no crisis…Before an emergency arises, God in his providence has made adequately and perfectly timed provision to meet it.
J. Oswald Sanders

A God who let us prove his existence would be an idol.
Dietrich Bonhoeffer

We are called to an everlasting preoccupation with God.
A. W. Tozer

When you feel unlovable, unworthy and unclean, when you think that no one can heal you:
Remember, Friend,
God Can.
When you think that you are unforgivable for your guilt and your shame:
Remember, Friend,
God Can.
When you think that all is hidden and no one can see within:
Remember, Friend,
God Can.
And when you have reached the bottom and you think that no one can hear:
Remember, my dear Friend,
God Can.
And when you think that no one can love the real person deep inside of you:
Remember, my dear Friend,
God Does.
Unknown

The eye with which I see God is the same with which God sees me.
Meister Eckhart

God does not answer our desperate questionings; he simply gives us himself.
Francois Mauriac

If you really want to know God, go to his people. Go to your barber and talk about God. Tell the carpenter about what you’re experiencing. Take time to read the lives of the saints. They always knock you off your feet because they tell you the preoccupations you have aren’t the ones you should have. Get in touch with those women and men who did crazy things like falling in love with God.
Henri Nouwen

I was regretting the past and fearing the future. Suddenly my Lord was speaking: “My name is I am.” He paused. I waited. He continued, “When you live in the past with its mistakes and regrets, it is hard. I am not there. My name is not I WAS. When you live in the future, with its problems and fears, it is hard. I am not there. My name is not I WILL BE. When you live in this moment, it is not hard. I am here. My name is I AM.
Helen Mallicoat

Our desires must not only be offered up to God, but they must all terminate in him, desiring nothing more than God, but still more and more of him.
Matthew Henry

Something of God flows into us from the blue of the sky, the taste of honey, the delicious embrace of water whether cold or hot, and even from sleep itself.
C. S. Lewis

There are very few who in their hearts do not believe in God, but what they will not do is give him exclusive right of way.
Dwight L. Moody

With the goodness of God to desire our highest welfare, the wisdom of God to plan it, and the power of God to achieve it, what do we lack?
A. W. Tozer

We should never tire of the thought of God’s power.
Donald Grey Barnhouse

Do not ask “what can I do?” but “what can He not do?”
Corrie ten Boom

He is to be seen in the light of a cottage window as well as in the sun or the stars.
Arthur G. Clutton-Brock

The first of all beautiful things is the continual possession of God.
Gregory of Nazianzus
