God Quote by Gift Gugu Mona — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“If you know yourself, you will not be easily turned into a victim of circumstances but a victor in all circumstances.”

“You do not need to listen to the background noise. You need to keep checking for the open door.”

“Bear in mind that success is a process that requires resilience and persistence. You will not just wake up and find yourself there. Therefore, as you aim to get there, embrace the process.”

“Sometimes, loss can be the weapon that redirects you to a place of victory.”

“Evaluate those around you. If they are not helping you grow, they are denying you an opportunity to evolve.”

“Evaluate the lessons you learnt throughout and discard those that were not helpful for your life.”

“Because God is never cruel, there is a reason for all things. We must know the pain of loss; because if we never knew it, we would have no compassion for others, and we would become monsters of self-regard, creatures of unalloyed self-interest. The terrible pain of loss teaches humility to our prideful kind, has the power to soften uncaring hearts, to make a better person of a good one.”

“Children see God every day; they just don't call it that. It's the summer sky painted with cumulus clouds by day and sequined with a million stars by night. It's the sweet whispers of sweet gum trees and the sounds riding the tops of honeysuckle-scented breezes. Children feel God stuffed into brown fluffy dogs with stitches strong enough to withstand a good squeeze, and on the lips of round women who can't get enough sugar from Chocolate.”

“Love without truth is sentimentality; it supports and affirms us but keeps us in denial about our flaws. Truth without love is harshness; it gives us information but in such a way that we cannot really hear it. God's saving love in Christ, however, is marked by both radical truthfulness about who we are and yet also radical, unconditional commitment to us. The merciful commitment strengthens us to see the truth about ourselves and repent. The conviction and repentance moves us to cling to and rest in God's mercy and grace.”

“The proud person always wants to do the right thing, the great thing. But because he wants to do it in his own strength, he is fighting not with man, but with God.”
