Donald Miller Quotes

And she would say, "Today you believe in God?" And he would say, "Today I believe in love".

Believing is nothing other than, in the darkness of the world, touching the hand of God, and in this way, in silence, hearing the Word, seeing love.

Religion is faith. Faith is belief without evidence. Belief without evidence cannot be shared. Faith is a feeling. Love is also a feeling, but love makes no universal claims. Love is pure.

It's important to have a spiritual side because tomorrow's no promise to us. We have to pay homage to our saviour and put him in our life more because, without him, you don't know where you're going to go.

The word 'religion' is only a label. What lies behind that, the most important thing of all, is the word 'faith'.
