The child's world is alert and alive, governed by rules of response and command, not by physical laws: a portentous continuum of consciousness, endowed with purpose and intent, either resistant or responsive to the child itself. This infantile notion of a world governed by moral rather than physical laws, kept under control by a superordinated parental personality instead of impersonal physical forces, and oriented to the weal and woe of man, is an illusion that dominates men's thoughts all over the world.The sense then, of this world as an undifferentiated continuum of simultaneously subjective and objective experience (Participation), which is all alive (Animism), and which was created by a superior being (Artificialism), may be said to constitute the frame of reference of all childhood experience no matter where in the world. No small wonder then, that the above Three Principles are precisely those most represented in the mythologies and religious systems of the whole world.

Hang on! God will strength in any act of your pursuit.

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

The Lord is a great God.The Lord is a great King.

In your darkest times, never be afraid. The Lord's presence is always with you.

Never question the conviction of a scientist, based on mere scriptures.

The more you keep your religious beliefs concealed from others, the lesser religious conflicts occur in the society.

1I smiled bitterly, a defeated man pitifully begging a God in whom he had never trusted.

Religious unity and religious tolerance are not the same thing. Unity doesn__ come merely through tolerance. You don__ need to tolerate people from other religions. It is time you start loving them. Toleration may make you a decent person, but it is love that makes you a true human being.

One who has just learnt a foreign language, constantly resorts, while talking, to words belonging to that language in order to make a show of his or her achievement. But one who knows the language well, seldom uses it when speaking in his or her own mother tongue. Such is the case with those who are well advanced in religion.

My question to the atheist is, do you want an atheist world or a peaceful world? And to the believer, do you want a religious world or a peaceful world? Religious orientation doesn't define peace, but the answer here may define one's true nature.

Religion without reason is like making love without love.

Belief is a wonderful way to pass the time until the facts come in.

With God, there__ always an appointed time for things, and when you put Him first, trust in His timing, and keep the faith, miracles happen!

The living has a great hope, we have life to bounce back from any difficulty. The dead had no hope.

Creation of mankind, the power of God.

Keep the faith. Allow Christ full reign in your life.

May we never forget the greatness of God.
