Divine Quotations On Cycle of Existence
Quotation 1 :CHILD
"There is nothing in the world that works such satanic, profound, God-defiant pride as false assurance; nothing works such utter humility, or brings to such utter self-emptiness, as the child-like spirit of true assurance."
A.A. Hodge


Quotation 2 :CHILD
"There is no wonder more supernatural and divine in the life of a believer than the mystery and ministry of prayer...the hand of the child touching the arm of the Father and moving the wheel of the universe."
A.B. Simpson


Quotation 3 :CHILD

A.T. Pierson


Quotation 4 :CHILD
"Satan is ever seeking to inject that poison into our hearts to distrust God's goodness - especially in connection with his commandments. That is what really lies behind all evil, lusting and disobedience. A discontent with our position and portion, a crav"
A.W. Pink


Quotation 5 :CHILD
"He remembers our frame and knows that we are dust. He may sometimes chasten us, it is true, but even this He does with a smile, the proud, tender smile of a Father who is bursting with pleasure over an imperfect but promising son who is coming every day t"

Alan Keyes


Quotation 8 :CHILD
"Did any of you, parents, ever hear your child wake from sleep with some panic fear and shriek the mother's name through the darkness? Was not that a more powerful appeal than all words? And, depend upon it, that the soul which cries aloud on God, "the God"
Alexander MacLaren


Quotation 9 :CHILD

"If I could put it simply, I would say that I believe there's a force of love and logic in the world, a force of love and logic behind the universe. And I believe in the poetic genius of a creator who would choose to express such unfathomable power as a ch"
Bono


Quotation 17 :CHILD
"Christ wants a child's heart, but a grown-up's head. He wants us to be simple, single-minded, affectionate, and teachable, as good children are; but He also wants every bit of intelligence we have to be alert at its job, and in first-class fighting trim."
C.S. Lewis

Quotation 19 :CHILD

Charles Spurgeon


Quotation 20 :CHILD
"Remember that if you are a child of God, you will never be happy in sin. You are spoiled for the world, the flesh, and the devil. When you were regenerated there was put into you a vital principle, which can never be content to dwell in the dead world. Yo"

Quotation 21 :CHILD

Charles Spurgeon


Quotation 22 :CHILD
"You may readily judge whether you are a child of God or a hypocrite by seeing in what direction your soul turns in seasons of severe trial. The hypocrite flies to the world and finds a sort of comfort there. But the child of God runs to his Father and exp"
Charles Spurgeon


Quotation 23 :CHILD

D.L. Moody


Quotation 25 :CHILD
"I hold to the doctrine of sudden conversion as I do to my life, and I would as quickly give up my life as give up this doctrine, unless it can be proved that it is not according to the word of God. Now, I will admit that light is one thing and birth is an"
D.L. Moody


Quotation 26 :CHILD

"A father's responsibility is not to make the child's decisions, but to let the child watch him make his."
Ed Cole


Quotation 29 :CHILD

Elisabeth Elliot


Quotation 30 :CHILD
"Temptation may even be a blessing to a man when it reveals to him his weakness and drives him to the almighty Savior. Do not be surprised, then, dear child of God, if you are tempted at every step of your earthly journey, and almost beyond endurance; but"
F.B. Meyer


Quotation 31 :CHILD
"Beware of fatiguing them by ill-judged exactness. If virtue offers itself to the child under a melancholy and constrained aspect, while liberty and license present themselves under an agreeable form, all is lost, and your labor is in vain."
Francois Fenelon


Quotation 32 :CHILD
"Believing in him is not the same as believing things about him such as that he was born of a virgin and raised Lazarus from the dead. Instead, it is a matter of giving our hearts to him, of come hell or high water putting our money on him, the way a child"
Frederick Buechner


Quotation 33 :CHILD

Henry Blackaby


Quotation 42 :CHILD
"Do not think that nothing is happening because you do not see yourself grow, or hear the whirr of the machinery. All great things grow noiselessly. You can see a mushroom grow, but never a child. Mr. Darwin tells us that Evolution proceeds by "numerous, s"
Henry Drummond


Quotation 43 :CHILD

Isaac Watts


Quotation 46 :CHILD
"The Almighty appeared on earth as a helpless human baby, needing to be fed and changed and taught to talk like any other child. The more you think about it, the more staggering it gets. Nothing in fiction is so fantastic as this truth of the Incarnation."

Quotation 47 :CHILD
"Always end the name of your child with a vowel, so that when you yell the name will carry."
Bill Cosby


Quotation 48 :CHILD

Quotation 57 :CYCLE OF EXISTENCE
"We desperately need to understand something of the magnitude of sin, of evil, and of gross wickedness in this world if we are to appreciate our redemption. God's love, grace, and mercy shine all the brighter against the awful reality of evil. Indeed, the"

Benjamin Franklin


Quotation 60 :CYCLE OF EXISTENCE

Gordon Olson


Quotation 61 :CYCLE OF EXISTENCE

Quotation 79 :DISSOLUTION OF THE WORLD
