Quotes

I've been keeping texts from friends which I like. However, its time to get rid of them so what better way then to share them with you. Most of them are inspirational quotes and some texts are just useful information like a guacamole recipe and how babies are made.

Genuine self-acceptance is not derived from the power of positive thinking, mind games, or pop psychology. It is an act of faith in the grace of God alone.

Praise the Lord, o my soul; all my inmost being, praise His holy name. Psalm 103:1

Hope isn't a granted wish or a favour performed;, it's far greater than that. Its's a zany unpredictable dependence on God who loves to surprise us out of our socks.

Open your hearts to the love God instills... God loves you tenderly. What He gives you is not to be kept under lock and key, but to be shared.

Jack Frost

God hears simple prayers just as clearly as He does more carefully composed ones. 'God have mercy on me!' or eve 'help!' are a delight to His ears. He not only hears but responds. In the chaos He whispers, 'I am with you'.

God loves to look at us, and loves it when we will look back at him. Even when we try to run away from our troubles . . . God will find us, and bless us, even when we feel most alone, unsure if we’ll survive the night. God will find a way to let us know that he is with us in this place wherever we are, however far we think we’ve run.
Katherine Norris

Sweet words are easy to say, sweet things are easy to buy, but sweet people are difficult to find, life ends when you stop dreaming, hope ends when you stop believing, love ends when you stop caring, friendship ends when you stop sharing. So share this with whomever you consider a friend.

The star exists that we might know how high our dreams can soar. Don't forget to move you eyes away from your work/problem/struggle and look at the stars, look at our wonderful God.

Son: Daddy, how did I come into this world?
Dad: Listen carefully, mom and dad met each other in a cyber cafe. In the restroom of that cyber cafe, dad was connected to mom. Mom at that time made some downloads from dad's memory stick.

A girl has strengths that amaze men. She can handle trouble and carry heavy burdens. She holds happiness, love and opinions. She smiles when she feels like screaming. She sings when she feels like crying, cries when she's happy and laughs when she's afraid. Her love is unconditional! There's only 1 thing wrong with her, she sometimes forgets what she's worth. Pass this on.

The truly happy people are those who have a sourve of happiness to deep to be seriously disturbed by ordinary troubels.
