“Our vision is so limited we can hardly imagine a love that does not show itself in protection from suffering.... The love of God did not protect His own Son.... He will not necessarily protect us - not from anything it takes to make us like His Son. A lot of hammering and chiseling and purifying by fire will have to go into the process.”
― Elisabeth Elliot

“One must love God first, and only then can one love one's closest of kin and neighbors. We must not be idols to one another, for such is not the will of God.”
― Elder Thaddeus of Vitovnica, Our Thoughts Determine Our Lives: The Life and Teachings of Elder Thaddeus of Vitovnica

“When ours are interrupted, his are not. His plans are proceeding exactly as scheduled, moving us always (including those minutes or hours or years which seem most useless or wasted or unendurable).”

“There is no other way to determine the difference between the will of God and the crafts of satan... Jesus is the way, the truth and the life... The Holy Spirit of God is the Comforter...”

“The will of God is sweet tonight, altogether ‘good and acceptable and perfect.â€� The considerate love of the Lord Jesus for us seems such a kind thing now. I know it has always been so, but somehow I didn’t see how wise it was when it didn’t seem kindâ€� Remind me of this when I cannot regard His love as considerate some time.”
― Jim Elliot

“One of the questions asked by al-Balkhi, and often repeated to this day, is this: Why do the children of Israel continue to suffer? My grandmother Dodo thought it was because the goyim were jealous. The seder for Passover (which is a shame-faced simulacrum of a Hellenic question-and-answer session, even including the wine) tells the children that it's one of those things that happens to every Jewish generation. After the Shoah or ·¡²Ô»å±ôö²õ³Ü²Ô²µ or Holocaust, many rabbis tried to tell the survivors that the immolation had been a punishment for 'exile,' or for insufficient attention to the Covenant. This explanation was something of a flop with those whose parents or children had been the raw material for the 'proof,' so for a time the professional interpreters of god's will went decently quiet. This interval of ambivalence lasted until the war of 1967, when it was announced that the divine purpose could be discerned after all. How wrong, how foolish, to have announced its discovery prematurely! The exile and the Shoah could now both be understood, as part of a heavenly if somewhat roundabout scheme to recover the Western Wall in Jerusalem and other pieces of biblically mandated real estate.

I regard it as a matter of self-respect to spit in public on rationalizations of this kind. (They are almost as repellent, in their combination of arrogance, masochism, and affected false modesty, as Edith Stein's 'offer' of her life to expiate the regrettable unbelief in Jesus of her former fellow Jews.) The sage Jews are those who have put religion behind them and become in so many societies the leaven of the secular and the atheist.”

“Qu'importe, mon Dieu, que je brûle toute l'éternité en enfer, si c'est ta volonté.”
― Thérèse de Lisieux

“Now what is the will of God? That's the big question. You can't say the will of God is to disrespect your fellow man. You can't say the will of God is to disrespect His creations, and you can't say the will of God is to disrespect the planet that you live on. You can say you're anything [any religion], but if your disrespect comes in any of those three categories, you're not anything, you're whack. I think the principles of religion start from there. Then you get into man's interpretation and bookology.”
― Chuck D, Lyrics of a Rap Revolutionary, Vol. 1

“What does it profit you to give God one thing if he asks of you another? Consider what it is God wants, and then do it. You will as a result satisfy your heart better than with something toward which you yourself are inclined.”
― John of the Cross, Dicho de Luz y Amor

“Win or lose, the gods feast on our deeds. A man pets a stray, and his small pleasure in the act of kindness feeds Slaanesh. A woman strikes her crying child and that awful moment of elation she feels feeds Khorne. A Munitorum drone considers suicide. Nurgle grows fat on his despair. A merciful strategist devises a plan for bloodless victory, and Tzeentch is content. The Word Bearers think the gods crave worship. But the gods care for nothing save filling their bellies with our sorrows. Intentionally or not, we are all meat for the beast. Even you.”
― Josh Reynolds, Fabius Bile: The Omnibus

“The parents of this generation will one day leave this world, and the people we have raised will fill the Earth. What are we leaving them, curses or blessings? The will of God over His children are blessings and abundant life, not temporary but incorruptible and imperishable abundance.”

“Desire to know the Word of God should lead to a delight to do his will.”
― Lailah Gifty Akita

“A man with this worldview is committed to a ceaseless process of discernment, a process by which he judges various paths and decides between various possibilities how best to accomplish the holy will of God by bringing his own calm, reasoned judgment to bear on the task or problem at hand. The underlying conviction of this old Catholic worldview is that each day is given to men and women to live in such a way as to give honor and glory to God who St. John tells us is the Logos ("and the Word was God"); that is, the meaning or reason of all things.”

“Be willing to do the will of God.”
― Lailah Gifty Akita

“Finally the faithful are to admonished to acquiesce in the simple and absolute will of God. Let him, who thinks that he occupies a place in society inferior to his desserts, bear his lot with patient resignation; let him not abandon his proper sphere, but abide in the vocation to which he has been called. Let him subject his own judgement to the will of God, who provides better for our interests that we can even desire ourselves. If troubled by poverty, by sickness, by persecution, or afflictions and anxieties of any sort, let us be convinced that none of these things can happen to us without the permission of God, who is the supreme Arbiter of all things.”
― Pope Pius V, The Catechism of the Council of Trent

“When you believe that there is an external force controlling your life here on earth, you will not see your role in human evolution.

When good things happen to you, you believe that it's been pre-designed.

Finally, you now accept that any situation you are in is the will of God.

You cannot truly and intelligently analyze your realities. Your highest statement becomes "only God can help me".

I want to tell you that there is no external force controlling you, it's all illusory. You need to take back control of your life. You carry the source of life inside of you. You carry so much light, it needs to show!”
― Chidi Ejeagba

“Moving a “consensus pointâ€� closer to your “optimal pointâ€� can only be accomplished by changing the culture of the group seeking consensus. This shift cannot be accomplished politically or by force; it can only happen as each individual moves closer to the same worldview. From the perspective of a Christian, it can only be accomplished as each individual agrees more closely with the will of God.”
― Curtis Ferrell, Dual Citizenship: Living as a Christian in America

“Realize that if you leave Him for just a moment, your most cruel enemies will seize you, but if you follow him, you will be received, emblazoned with the medals of the victor, into the kingdom of Heaven.”
