Children are our future, and God loves the children.
— Victoria Osteen
One thing is certain: our families are important. Don't get so stressed out and so preoccupied that we neglect one of the greatest things that God has given us, and that's our families.
You know what, my faith is like this - when I die, I'm going to live with God forever and ever. But I believe He wants us to have a good life here on Earth.
I believe that God wants us to show respect.
Well, I - you know, the scripture says that God works by faith. And you have to have faith. You have to have trust in God so that God can work.
Religion is man's attempt to bind himself back to a relationship with God.
— Victoria Jackson
People use the notion of God to bully people and hurt people, when we can use the concept to respect and uplift.
— Victor LaValle
To think is of itself to be useful; it is always and in all cases a striving toward God.
— Victor Hugo
Because one doesn't like the way things are is no reason to be unjust towards God.
Sorrow is a fruit. God does not make it grow on limbs too weak to bear it.
Hope is the word which God has written on the brow of every man.
I believe that President Obama is here for a reason, but that doesn't mean that he has to stay there next year. The American people have an opportunity to have a say and so I think we just have to do what we think is right - and see what the outcome is. God's got a plan.
— Vicky Hartzler
The Amish like to live a very plain lifestyle, the way they think God intended. It sort of brings you back to, like, 'Little House on the Prairie' days or something.
— Verne Troyer
I've never felt the breath of God - you can take that statement literally or metaphorically - more than when I was yearning for a personal, intimate connection to something bigger than me.
— Vera Farmiga
I think all religions can agree on certain definitions of God and concepts of God, like God being the god of love, the great 'I am' energy.
According to God's word, we haven't done a very good job concerning our little ones, nor our teens.
— Vanity
Sometimes your medicine bottle has on it, 'Shake well before using.' That is what God has to do with some of His people. He has to shake them well before they are ever usable.
— Vance Havner
You may not be like everyone else, but that's okay. Be who God made you to be.
Do good 'cause God wants you to be happy. When you come to church, when you worship Him, you're not doing it for God, really. You're doing it for yourself because that's what makes God happy.
In fact, we have a choice of freedom of heart to follow God.
There are a lot of times that we feel like our hands are tied - 'I have no control over if I'm going to lose my job.' 'I have no control over if I'm going to be able to pay my bills.' You've got to realize that that's where your trust comes in. You have to trust God, and keep your hope, because your hope is what produces your faith.
Our culture has long mistrusted the body. It's been seen as a confusing blend of God's handiwork and the devil's playground. It is, rather, a vortex of intelligence.
— Victoria Moran
God hears a mother's prayer.
— Victoria Gotti
One of the things that doesn't come up as much as it should, especially in literary fiction, is this idea of faith and God... I feel like those are things that should be wrestled with... because they are such an integral part of our community on every level.
When God desires to destroy a thing, he entrusts its destruction to the thing itself. Every bad institution of this world ends by suicide.
Conscience is God present in man.
To love another person is to see the face of God.
Oh, I love Nottingham. I know some people go, 'Oh God, there's not much going off there,' but I like staying in and going round to my mum and dad's for a Sunday roast.
— Vicky McClure
I know exactly what it's like to stand on top of a tall building or in a high place and look down and go, 'Ohhhh my God.' I try to get into that place every time I write a scene like that. And definitely when I write the action scenes, I get overheated and my heart goes really fast. I get very involved.
— Veronica Roth
I think God gave us senses of humor, and we should use them.
I'm just someone who marvels at God.
In these times, in this harsh, rude, warring world that we live in, where most of the bloodshed is 'My god is greater than your god,' and we're fighting in the name of our god, we have to find a way to peaceably coexist, spiritually.
I go to wherever God calls me, wherever the church calls me to come to minister and preach the word of God.
It is one of the ironies of the ministry that the very man who works in God's name is often hardest put to find time for God. The parents of Jesus lost Him at church, and they were not the last ones to lose Him there.
God's not complicated - He's really not. And He helps people in their everyday life so that they can get better in relationships, in their job situations, in getting through grief.
When we obey God, we're not doing it for God... we're doing it for ourself. Because God takes pleasure when we're happy.
I don't question God.
A lot of times we see choices in front of us, and we limit ourselves by what we see. God wants us to see His way of doing things. And His way is always greater than our ways.
If you've been driving for a little while and nothing's happened to you yet - and you've been texting and driving - you think, 'Oh nothing's going to happen.' But all it takes is an accident happening with one of your friends or God forbid, something happening to you, to really give you a wake-up call.
— Victoria Justice
'Dark Gods,' T. E. D. Klein's book of four novellas, felt like a godsend - even if it came from a deformed god, one that lurked beneath our sidewalks.
Religions do a useful thing: they narrow God to the limits of man. Philosophy replies by doing a necessary thing: it elevates man to the plane of God.
Dear God! how beauty varies in nature and art. In a woman the flesh must be like marble; in a statue the marble must be like flesh.
The word is the Verb, and the Verb is God.
Indigestion is charged by God with enforcing morality on the stomach.
My job is to give my best, and where my journey would take me is something that I have left to God. I am not much of a planner; I am more of a doer.
— Vicky Kaushal
The following terms all mean one and the same thing: God, goodness, mental health, truth, decency, happiness, freedom, reality, peace, love, sensibleness.
— Vernon Howard
It's a very different thing, religion and faith. Religion is man-made, it's man-regulated. And faith, you can define God as you wish. But I think they're two different things.
My father instilled in me - of utmost importance and innate in me is the yearning to determine for myself - to define God, to define holiness for myself.
I never thought, 'Oh God, I'm in Prince's shadow.' He'd been performing for years, and he was my teacher.
When you see yourself on a 40-ft. screen. you go, 'Oh My God! I look so weird!'
— Vanessa Kirby
