“Here is the thing about God. He is so big and so perfect that we can't really understand Him. We can't possess Him, or apprehend Him. Moses learned this when he climbed up Mount Sinai and saw that the radiance of God's face would burn him up should he gaze upon it directly. But God so wants to be in relationship with us that He makes himself small, smaller than He really is, smaller and more humble than his infinite, perfect self, so that we might be able to get to Him, a little bit.”
Lauren F. Winner, Girl Meets God: On the Path to a Spiritual Life

“Real joy comes when we get the right desire met - the desire for God himself, for a life led by the Spirit, fulfilling not our material desires but our deepest need, which is to be in a close relationship with our Creator. That is the source of true blessing. The only source.”
Michael W. Smith

“I had invited God to come into my life but I had no idea how I thought things should be or how often I would close the door to God and let my will run wild. But with each struggle I have with God, I learn more about His beauty, love and patience. He isn't so far removed from me now. He's become my best friend. I still say, "No God, this time I think you're wrong. I won't." And God waits until my whole being realizes that I'm incapable of doing it alone, that His way is the best way. He has miraculously given me the strength and courage to face life as it is. I have His help and guidance to weather the storms and enjoy the beauty I had not seen before.”

“When we confess our sin, we agree with God that what he calls sin really is sin. It's not our sin that keeps us from a relationship with God - but rather our attitude toward our sin, and how we deal with it.”

“The constant struggle to have an intimate relationship with God exists because we are unwilling to accept God as is.”
E'yen A. Gardner, Man Cannot Live By Bread Alone: How The Power of Your Words Can Change Everything

“God does not bless you because you’re good, because you help others, because you give money, because you witness, because you come to church or any other overt activity. God blesses you because you possess His righteousness. It is your eternal relationship with God that brings you blessing, not your personality or ability.”
Pastor Rod W. Larkins

“...our desire to stay in control forces us to pay the highest price imaginable - letting our relationship with God gradually grow cold. Before long, we become mechanical and lose all sense of passion in serving the Lord. We can go through the motions, but our lives become hollow and our faith degenerates into mere surface religion.”
Carol Cymbala, He's Been Faithful: Trusting God to Do What Only He Can Do

Mark Batterson, Whisper: How to Hear the Voice of God

“Turning away from God during challenges will not proffer solution to our challenges, but rather compound it.”
ANIKOR Daniel

Criss Jami
“But I do not know much - except perhaps the One - as it is written thus: 'Nothing except Jesus.' Yet even added up...just copy-cat expressions, wanna-be humble platitudes, try-hard lip service, feel-strong sayings, feel-good quotations plus virtue-signalling slogans and such...these things are not enough: because He must know me.”
Criss Jami

“We present God to each other as perfect and infallible, and then we expect everyone to relate to that, knowing very well, that we never feel close to the perfect; we never feel like we can relate to the infallible. And then we say, "God loves you." How can someone you cannot relate to, love you, and vice versa? Our entire presentation of God is severely flawed and distant. Every time we refer to God, we make that reference in a way that digs the barrier wider, the chasm deeper. What if God's human side is just as fallible as we are? Just as pained as we are? And what if He never wrote any of those books we say He did?”
