Nicholas Sparks Quotes

There's a lot of things we go through and we don't even know why... At the end of the day, God has a purpose and a plan for you, and that's kind of how I take that.

Just because I don't understand god's plans does not mean that he is not with me.

As long as you believe in Him, no matter what happens in your life, understand that it's all for a purpose.

I believe firmly in God's control in life.

I know God has a plan for me. I don't know what it is.

God will put me where he wants me.

God does have a specific plan for our lives, but it is not one that He expects us to figure out before we make a decision.

I do know this: God does answer your prayers, but it's not always in the way you expect. God knows what's best for us, though, so there's no need to worry when things don't go how we originally wanted them to go.

God may not be there when you want him but he is always on time.

This, I thought, is what is meant by 'thy will be done' in the Lord's Prayer, which I had prayed time and again without thinking about it. It means that your will and God's will may not be the same. It means there's a good possibility that you won't get what you pray for. It means that in spite of your prayers you are going to suffer.

I think faith helps me a lot. God wants you to be where He wants you to be, and that's where I want to be. If I do not get a part, I understand that maybe I needed to be home at that time, maybe in school; there's always a reason. My faith is also where my core friends are, at my church, a faith-based friendship.

I'm walking this walk, and my life has nothing to do with my perception of the world. It's all God! How do I function within His plan?

God's will for your life is God's will for today, and it doesn't get any more glamorous than that.

I try to act out of faith.

I know that for me I have to get out of the way and let God take control.

Sometimes I haven't understood why he has done things and why things happened, but I know that God has a plan.

Faith is about trusting God when you have unanswered questions.

The only thing that matters is submitting to the will of God.

I have come to realize that God is sovereign, and there are things I just don't understand.

It may seem like we have the ultimate plan for our lives, but it's not in the same galaxy of what God's plans are for His people.

I trust in God, and His ways are not our ways. So we have to go with that, and there's nothing I can do about that.

Whatever I will become will be what God has chosen for me.

Faith may be encouraged by what has happened in the past, or what is thought to have happened in the past, but the only proof of it is in the future.

I believe that whatever comes at a particular time is a blessing from God.

Sometimes you want to whisper in God's ear, 'God, we know you are in charge, but why don't you make it slightly more obvious?'
