Those who persevere in sin are those who are held in abhorrence by God, but those who abandon the ways of sin are loved by the Lord.
I loved ‘Pan’s Labyrinth.’ It transported me into another world. I like fantasy worlds; I love ‘Lord of the Rings’ as well, for that reason, because you really get to get out of reality and go somewhere else.
A fanatic is a man that does what he thinks the Lord would do if He knew the facts of the case.
With the Spirit and magnifying your call, you can do miracles for the Lord in the mission field. Without the Spirit, you will never succeed, regardless of your talent and ability.

‘Jurassic Park’ and ‘Star Wars’ shoved me into loving sci-fi and film in general when I was a barely coherent 3-year-old. And ‘Lord of the Rings’ took me to another planet entirely. Before that series, I knew I loved writing, but after, I knew that I had to write.

The Spirit of the Lord is with them that fear him.
‘You better do a lot of praying’ is good counsel for all of the Lord’s servants, new or seasoned. It is what His wise servants do. They pray. The disciples of Jesus Christ when He lived on the earth noticed that about Him.

He Who is your Lord, the All-Merciful cherisheth in His heart the desire of beholding the entire human race as one soul and one body.
The earth is the Lord’s fullness thereof: this is no longer a hollow dictum of religion, but a directive for economic action toward human brotherhood.
A human being is still more likely to die of a bee sting, snake bite or, Lord knows, automobile accident than by shark attack. We do not execute the perpretrators of death by car. We should not butcher an animal for an inadvertent homicide.

I’d like to thank the good Lord for making me a Yankee.
Lord save us all from old age and broken health and a hope tree that has lost the faculty of putting out blossoms.

‘Lord Of The Rings’ fandom was massive, worldwide, entrenched. Generally it had been part of the fans’ life all their life, because they had it read to them as children; they’d become Tolkien students.
From heresy, frenzy and jealousy, good Lord deliver me.
Try to keep your soul always in peace and quiet, always ready for whatever our Lord may wish to work in you. It is certainly a higher virtue of the soul, and a greater grace, to be able to enjoy the Lord in different times and different places than in only one.
Lord, dismiss us with Thy blessing, Thanks for mercies past received.
The Lord is well aware of our mortality. He knows our weaknesses. He understands the challenges of our everyday lives. He has great empathy for the temptations of earthly appetites and passions.
What should I have known or written had I been a quiet, mercantile politician or a lord in waiting? A man must travel, and turmoil, or there is no existence.
I shall be an autocrat: that’s my trade. And the good Lord will forgive me: that’s his.
It was the Lord’s love and my recognition of His presence in my life that made me realize how important it was to give Him the glory and be there for Him.
Clearly, unless the Lord chooses to explain Himself to us, which often He does not, His motivation and purposes are beyond the reach of mortal man. What this means in practical terms is that many of our questions – especially those that begin with the word ‘why’ – will have to remain unanswered for the time being.
I am certain that the Lord, who notes the fall of a sparrow, looks with compassion upon those who have been called upon to part, even temporarily, from their precious children.
The tithe payer helps the Lord build temples, where families can be sealed forever. The tithe payer helps Him send the gospel to people everywhere. The tithe payer helps Him relieve hunger and suffering in His own way through His servants.

I am a Christian person, and I do love the Lord, and I feel no matter who you are, what you believe, how you live your life, it’s not my place to judge. I don’t have that power. I don’t want that power. It’s my place to love and to show God’s love to other people, even if they don’t live a life like I live.
The Lord gave us Ten Commandments, but the bill before the House today gives us 39.
Common looking people are the best in the world: that is the reason the Lord makes so many of them.

Do as many gigs as the good Lord sends. That’s the only true training.
The Lord, Jesus Christ, is our perfect example of patience.
I believe I have a calling. Do you know what that calling is? To stand up in a new and hard core, radical way for the Lord. In the process, if I insult a couple of people, if I offend a couple of people, and if I got to shake it up a little bit, as long as it is led by the Holy Spirit, amen.
What a gift it would be to receive at Christmastime a greater knowledge of the Lord. What a gift it would be to share that knowledge with others.
