We must know that we have been created for greater things, not just to be a number in the world, not just to go for diplomas and degrees, this work and that work. We have been created in order to love and to be loved.
Nothing is so great and clear a proof of unfitness for greater and nobler actions, than a mind which is seriously occupied with trifles.
All the world is heavy with the promise of greater things, and the day will come … when beings, beings who are now latent in our thoughts and hidden in our loins shall stand upon this earth … and shall laugh and reach out their hands amid the stars.
God has created us to love and to be loved, and this is the beginning of prayer-to know that He loves me, that I have been created for greater things.
The purpose of life is to be defeated by greater and greater things.
God is preparing you for greater things. He's going to take you further than you thought possible, so don't be surprised when He asks you to think better of yourself and to act accordingly.
We make images to "honor what is greater and more interesting than we are."
Persisting through lesser difficulties builds your capacity to persist through greater difficulties, and achieve even greater things.
