God Quote by Alexis Karel — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“If the universe is so bad, or even half so bad, how on earth did human beings ever come to attribute it to the activity of wise and good Creator? Men are fools, perhaps; but hardly as foolish as that.”

“All human actions are motivated at their deepest level by two emotions--fear or love. In truth there are only two emotions--only two words in the language of the soul.... Fear wraps our bodies in clothing, love allows us to stand naked. Fear clings to and clutches all that we have, love gives all that we have away. Fear holds close, love holds dear. Fear grasps, love lets go. Fear rankles, love soothes. Fear attacks, love amends.”

“Love is a feat that men can achieve, but it is an action in opposition to the nature of those who achieve it. That is what makes love the stuff of God, the struggle of men, and the essence of Christmas.”

“It is easy to lose the battle when you are lost. So, if victory is your ultimate choice, follow God. He will set you on the right course.”

“God's holiness is not an unloving holiness, and God's love is not an unholy love. It is only by keeping these two primary moral qualities of the divine being closely related that we may rightly behold the character of God. (p. 98)”
