I don't know if my faith stems from what I'd call unconditional love, but the energy certainly feels boundless.
Genuine religion is matter of feeling rather than matter of opinion.
My anger rises up within faith and not outside it.
Faith is not merely a journey for the feet, but it is also a journey for the heart.
Religion is never devoid of emotion, any more than love is. It is not a defect of religion, but rather its glory, that it speaks always the language of feeling.
Thank God we don't serve God with our feelings, otherwise I don't know where I would be. - Pray for me.
The true meaning of religion is thus, not simply morality, but morality touched by emotion.
I don't think you can know God unless you're passionate about him so you're either screaming at him, enraptured with the idea of being around him or feeling him in your life.
Some people accuse us of too much emotionalism. I say we have too little. That is why we are losing church people to other interests. We need not only to capture their minds; we've got to touch their hearts. We've got to make people feel their faith.
There is a question whether faith can or is supposed to be emotionally satisfying. I must say that the thought of everyone lolling about in an emotionally satisfying faith is repugnant to me. I believe that we are ultimately directed Godward but that this journey is often impeded by emotion
