God Quote by Leonard Ravenhill — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“If God were to make a million lovely flowers in your image and plant them in a garden with you among them, I would still know you by your scent and by the feel of your petals and by the crazy way you lean towards my light whenever I draw near.”

“The English experience suggested that nobody really doubted the existence of God until theologians tried to prove it.”

“Growth comes from God, to those with surrendered, yielded hearts.”

“Here we must take account of one of St. Thomas's conceptual distinctions, which at first seems like unnecessary caviling. It is the distinction between "uncreated" and "created" happiness. We have here something which, while not at all obvious, is nevertheless fraught with consequences for our whole feeling about life. Namely, this: what does indeed make us happy is the infinite and uncreated richness of God; but participation in this, happiness itself, is entirely a "creatural" reality governed from within by our humanity; it is not something that descends overwhelmingly upon us from outside. That is, it is not only something that happens to us; we ourselves are intensely active participants in our own happiness.”

“I don't think there's anything wrong with borrowing someone else's faith to get you through until you get enough on your own.”
