God Quote by Craig D. Lounsbrough — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“The gift of Christmas is the answer to everything for which there is no answer.”

“You will finally come to understand the gift of Christmas once you realize that you are in desperate need of that gift and that you have no means whatsoever to give it to yourself.”

“I pray that I am never so foolishly naive or roguishly pompous to think that I can be the captain of my own ship, for if God is not at the helm my ship will soon be at the bottom.”

“I am compelled by the idea of a God Who would not demand that I ascend to some state of elevated divinity that I am entirely incapable of achieving. Rather, I am caught up in a God Who was audacious enough to descend beneath me so that I might be raised above me.”

“With God, brokenness is nothing more than the stage upon which the impossible is about to happen.”

“It’s not wondering what God might do. Rather, it’s resting in what He’s already done that evidences what He’s certain to do.”

“I have found God, but he is insufficient.”

“Anything less than true companionship with God leaves us feeling on the fringes, close but not close enough.”

“Tough times don't define you, they refine you. ‪”

“It is when we notice the dirt that God is most present in us; it is the very sign of His presence.”

“How often the priest had heard the same confession--Man was so limited: he hadn't even the ingenuity to invent a new vice: the animals knew as much. It was for this world that Christ had died: the more evil you saw and heard about you, the greater the glory lay around the death; it was too easy to die for what was good or beautiful, for home or children or civilization--it needed a God to die for the half-hearted and the corrupt.”

“The men-first hierarchy delivered as advertised. Organizing God is so vulnerable to human corruption, it should be the most terrifying venture on earth to attempt. No one means for it to, but add power, money, and arbitrary rules of engagement to any pure thing, and attrition is inevitable.”
