Count your blessings and be grateful not a great fool.

Create hell and people will be impatient to get there, just out of curiosity

Cultural and religious traditions that forbid cross-cultural unions prevent peace on earth. Instead of rejoicing that our sons and daughters are heart-driven and love other humans outside of their familiar religious, social or cultural domains, we punish and insult them. This is wrong. Honor killings are not honorable by God. They are driven by ignorance and ego and nothing more. The Creator favors the man who loves over the man who hates. If you think God will punish you or your child for allowing them to marry outside of your tribe or faith, then you do not know God. Love is his religion and the light of love sees no walls. Anybody who unconditionally loves another human being for the goodness of their heart and nothing more is already on the right side of God.

Daily prayer, daily grace.

Dalam kehidupan, terbagi menjadi tiga jalan. Ada jalan penuh kegelapan, yang hanya membawa penderitaan dan kesedihan. Ada pula jalan redup, kadang bahagia namun sering juga sengsara. Ada juga jalan terang, yang membawa kebahagiaan dan dipenuhi keberuntungan serta keberkahan.

Dear God, if one day I lose my hope and purpose, give me confidence that your destiny is better than anything I ever dreamed.

Dear God, you created us in your likeness, our hearts are uneasy until they find you - From the film Sophie Scholl

Dear Gods of Heaven and Earth. The universe has began, without a beginning. Even if it's divided into Heaven, Earth, and Man, the essence is the same. Although Heaven, Earth, and Man are different in form, they have the same nature. Although Heaven is full of spirits, because there is no box to contain it, fom heaven came Man. When the three absolutes move in harmony, energy is created, covering all the material and the spirit for the Man. All the use of all creation may change, the basic mind is originally the bright light. Shine on Man with respect for it, Man is the best of the universe.

DEMONS MUST BE RELIGIOUS Due to exorcism based on each religion's practices

Despite the fact that, the idea of religion has been filled by the human society with all sorts of garbage, and thus been made complicated beyond common human comprehension, in reality, there is nothing simpler than the idea of religion. It is this simple. The religion of a computer is to compute - the religion of a scorpion is to sting in the face of danger - the religion of a human is to help other humans. Scriptures are neither the origin nor the measure of religion. The origin and measure of religion are the human heart.

Destroy what you have become and become what you did destroy/

Dilemma of a Modern Christian: We know enough Word to make us Argumentative but not enough to help ourself change. We have enough Knowledge to make us Religious but not enough to make us Godly. We have enough Reasons for being critical about others but never enough to be Compassionate. We have enough Wisdom to say that we are Right but never enough to Say "God I'm Sorry". We have enough Friends who leads us astray but never enough who builds us Spiritually. We have enough Talents to score point over others but never enough to Serve one another. We have enough Achievements to fill ourselves with Self-Glory but not enough to make us Holy. We have enough Time to attend all our Needs but never enough to Seek God in Worship. ... God please help us to have enough but plenteous enough to 'Please You' in all the ways of our Life. - Santosh Thankachan

Do all the good you can, by all the means you can, in all the places you can, to all the people you can, as long as you ever can.

Do all the good you can while you still have the opportunity.

Do not get down on your knees to pray just to show God that you always remember him. Instead stay on your feet, and always do as he would do in place of him.

Do not think that love, in order to be genuine, has to be extraordinary. What we need is to love without getting tired.

Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world—the desires of the flesh and the desires of the eyes and pride in possessions—is not from the Father but is from the world. And the world is passing away along with its desires, but whoever does the will of God abides forever.

Don't create unbelief or doubt in people's minds. When you do so you ruin their lives and you have nothing to give them in its place. It's ok if people delude themselves; those delusions keep their day running.

Don't be alarmed, the god I am trying to kill is the one I hate, not the one I love

Don't creationists ever wonder about the fact that the paleontologists found ape-like skulls with the 'human leg and foot bones,' rather than the other way around, i.e., human skulls with 'ape leg and foot bones?' . . . Come on, creationists, think about it! Did God hide the human skulls, only leaving behind leg and foot bones belonging to human midgets with misshapen feet, and mix such bones only with the skulls of ape-like creatures with larger cranial capacities than living apes? What a 'kidder' the creationists' God must be.

Don’t curse the gods; you will feel shame when you have to call on them for help

Dreams can only come true when you wake up and do something.

Don't wake up and still sleep your dream away.

Do you understand? You've been praying to a crucified chimpanzee all these years. Your Son of Man is not a god-he's just an ape on a cross!

Dreaming is what you do when your eyes are closed...living is what you do with that dream once you open your eyes!

Dunia saat ini kacau krn banyak manusia yg melempar sisi logis dr ajaran agama ke kondisi deeskalasi!

Even if god was proved beyond doubt that he did not exist. We would still believe in him. We don't need hard facts, we need true emotions.

Each mind conceives god in its own way. There may be as many variation of the god figure as there are people in the world

Enam puluh tahun kami menikah. Dua belas anak. Tentu saja ada banyak pertengkaran. Kadang merajuk diam-diaman satu sama lain. Cemburu. Salah-paham. Tapi kami berhasil melaluinya. Dan inilah puncak perjalanan cinta kami. Aku berjanji padanya saat menikah, besok lusa, kami akan naik haji. Kami memang bukan keluarga kaya dan terpandang. Maka itu, akan kukumpulkan uang, sen demi sen. Tidak peduli berapa puluh tahun, pasti cukup...Pagi ini, kami sudah berada di atas kapal haji. Pendengaranku memang sudah berkurang. Mataku sudah tidak awas lagi. Tapi kami akan naik haji bersama. Menatap Ka'bah bersama. Itu akan kami lakukan sebelum maut menjemput. Bukti cinta kami yang besar.

Eternity is not just looking to the future and our place with God in Heaven, but it is looking at our Eternity as if it were only moments away.

Even religious people are vulnerable to this longing. Those who belong to communities of faith have acquired a certain patience with what is sometimes called organized religion. They have learned to forgive themselves. They do not expect their institutions to stand in for God, and they are happy to use inherited maps for some of life's journeys. They do not need to walk off every cliff all by themselves. Yet they too can harbor the sense that there is more to life that they are being shown. Where is the secret hidden? Who has the key to the treasure box of More?

Even though everybody hates you, you'll always have a friend who protects you and wishes to uplift you from pain, misery and suffering and that will always turn and remain the hardest blow to those who hate you.

Everyday i get closer to our meeting i feel like i've been walking this path for a thousand years towards you.. and yet i'm still not there so close, and yet so far but i keep walking despite the tears despite the wind despite the skinned knees and broken bones despite the bruises and scars that made this heart what it is today i keep walking towards you there's only one direction one direction: towards you... from you, to you i have nothing else nothing that is my poverty i keep walking because behind every sun's setting is a rising behind every storm is a refuge behind every fall is a rise behind every tear is a cleansing of the eyes and in every spot i've ever been stabbed, is a healing and the creation of skin stronger than it was i keep walking because WALLAHI i've nothing but your mercy i've nothing but your promise your words your promise that: يَا أَيُّهَا الْإِنسَانُ إِنَّكَ كَادِحٌ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ كَدْحًا فَمُلَاقِيهِ - 84:6 O mankind, indeed you are laboring toward your Lord with [great] exertion and will meet it. [Quran 84:6]

Every muscle in his body tensed for action, adrenalin pounding through his tiny veins, he crept down the stairs, keeping to the corners (where he knew they creaked less). He peered around the bottom of the stairwell into the living room, and there he saw a lean, bearded man, clad only in a loincloth and a crown of thorns. When he bent over the Xmas tree, Tony saw that blood flowed freely from his bare hands and feet. Before the cherubic prepubescent could stop himself, the words flew out of his mouth: “You’re not Santa!

Faith in God will elevate you to next level blessings.

Fast is th food that nourish the inner life.

Fear no one except the One.

Fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge. Only Fools despise wisdom and discipline." Proverbs 1:7 NLT

For the elements have the property of moving back to their place in a straight line, but they have no properties which would cause them to remain where they are, or to move other-wise than in a straight line, These rectilinear motions of these four elements when returning to their original place are are of two kinds, either centrifugal,vziz.>the motion of the air and the fire; or centripedal,viz.> the motion of the earth, and the water; and when the elements have reached their original place, they remain at rest.

For all these stars, nothing is new. They’ve seen all kinds of wars and miracles, too. They know the messengers with their holy books will smile and wash their hands in blood. They know the politicians with their good looks will make the poor eat pies of mud. They’ve seen the Earth freeze and then burn with greed. They’ve seen the trees and the seas emptied. Yet, you won’t hear their sneers when a man arrives and, having experienced a number of years, proclaims: 'I have lived!' Because nothing is new under these stars: the lies, the love, the memories and scars, the ruin, the revolution, the fakes and true, the families, the friends, none of it is new. All of it—even the me and you.

For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. -John, Apostle (and brother?) of Jesus, The Bible (RSV, non-Catholic), 3:16
