The Heaviest Burden
"God places the heaviest burden on those who can carry its weight."

So true. God expects a great deal from us, but not more than He believes we can handle. This quote from the late former NFL defensive end Reggie White, known to some as the "Minister of Defense" because of his spirituality, sums things up nicely. -

Denying the Truth
"Men occasionally stumble over the truth, but most of them pick themselves up and hurry off as if nothing had happened."
--Winston Churchill
British statesman Sir Winston Churchill speaks volumes with this quote. Those who don't believe may find themselves faced with "the truth" (that God exists), but some choose to continue to deny it and move on quickly. They can't face the reality. - 3
Let Our Light Shine
"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that frightens us most. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and famous?' Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that people won't feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in all of us. And when we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."
--Marianne Williamson
This incredibly inspirational quote was used by Nelson Mandela during his inaugural speech in 1994. Maryanne Williamson lays it all out here, letting us know that it's okay to use the gifts and the light God gives us each day - even if it seems overwhelming at times. We help others by shining brightly. -

Private Doors
"God enters by a private door into each individual."
--Ralph Waldo Emerson
Religion is extremely personal. Each person experiences God and faith in different ways. Some may let God into their heart only after a great crisis; others spend a lifetime knowing Him. But in each case, God enters differently. - 5
