20 Powerful Quotes About Life

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.- John 3:16 (KJV)

“Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter.”– Martin Luther King

 The Christian life is not a constant high. I have my moments of deep discouragement. I have to go to God in prayer with tears in my eyes, and say, ‘O God, forgive me,’ or ‘Help me.’ -Billy Graham

“It’s not the years in your life that count; it’s the life in your years.” ~ Abraham Lincoln

“You never know how much you really believe anything until its truth or falsehood become a matter of life and death to you.” ~ C. S. Lewis

“Words can never adequately convey the incredible impact of our attitudes toward life. The longer I live the more convinced I become that life is 10 percent what happens to us and 90 percent how we respond to it.” ~ Chuck Swindoll

“Do all the good you can. By all the means you can. In all the ways you can. In all the places you can. At all the times you can. To all the people you can. As long as ever you can.” ― John Wesley

“God is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied in Him” ― John Piper

“We never grow closer to God when we just live life. It takes deliberate pursuit and attentiveness.”― Francis Chan

“He said “Love…as I have loved you.” We cannot love too much.”― Amy Carmichael

“God wants the whole person and He will not rest till He gets us in entirety. No part of the man will do”― A.W. Tozer

Jesus said to them, “I am the bread of life; whoever comes to me shall not hunger, and whoever believes in me shall never thirst…” John 6:35

“Where I was born and where and how I have lived is unimportant. It is what I have done with where I have been that should be of interest.” ~ D.L. Moody

“God created me—and you—to live with a single, all-embracing, all-transforming passion—namely, a passion to glorify God by enjoying and displaying his supreme excellence in all the spheres of life.”― John Piper

“Be not forgetful to entertain strangers; for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.”― Serena B. Miller

Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me…” John 14:6

“Radical obedience to Christ is not easy… It’s not comfort, not health, not wealth, and not prosperity in this world. Radical obedience to Christ risks losing all these things. But in the end, such risk finds its reward in Christ. And he is more than enough for us.”― David Platt

“How far you go in life depends on your being tender with the young, compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving, and tolerant of the weak and the strong. Because someday in life you will have been all of these.” ~ George Washington

“Avoid trivial pursuits. You are a child of God, destined for glory, and called to do great things in His Name. Do not waste your life on hobbies, sports, and other recreational pursuits. Do not throw away the precious moments of your life on entertainment, movies, and video games. Though some of these things can properly have a ‘small place’ in the Christian’s life, we must be careful not to give undue attention to temporal and fruitless activities. Do not waste your life. Employ the time of your youth in developing the character and skills necessary to be a useful servant of God.”
― Paul David Washer

And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven. Genesis 1:20 (KJV)
