Great Quotes On Faith

Keep your dreams alive. Understand to achieve anything requires faith and belief in yourself, vision, hard work, determination, and dedication. Remember all things are possible for those who believe.
- Gail Devers

Faith in one's progress brings contentment.

Even when the situation is not according to what is expected, there is contentment for the one who has faith in his own progress.  Such a person will not just sit back waiting for things to change nor will he just curse his fate.  Instead he'll do his best and use all his resources in bettering the situation.

The understanding that all life's situations are a training for me, automatically keeps me content in all situations.  There is naturally an experience of constant progress and a feeling of having gained something from all situations.
- Brahma Kumaris, Mt. Abu

Faith doesn't make anything happen - faith rests on something that has happened!
- Malcolm Smith

Where there is faith, there is greatness.

To have faith means to recognize the positivity in the self, in others and in situations. It also means a deep connection with God. The one who has faith is able to bring out the greatness in everything and everyone. So such a person reveals his greatness wherever he is. When we have unbroken faith, we have the understanding that everything that happens is for some good cause. So, we are satisfied with everything that happens in our 
lives. We are creative in our responses to the environment, which in turn, makes us truly great.
- Brahma Kumaris, Mt. Abu

Without faith, nothing is possible. With it, nothing is impossible."
- Mary Bethune

To know that the seed of selfless action will surely bear fruit at its own time is to be light.

Sometimes when involved in a task, we tend to get carried away with the result. We become so result-oriented that we begin to expect the fruit of what we have done immediately. Without the recognition of the fact that the result might take time to come, we begin to get caught up with our own expectations. This creates a lot of heaviness in our mind and we might even give up what we are doing. When we make a contribution for something, we must develop faith that whatever has to happen will happen at the right time. We don't have to eat unripe fruit, i.e., not get carried away with immediate results but have to wait patiently knowing that the fruits of our actions will ripen at their own time. With faith this is possible and we will be able to free ourselves from negativity and heaviness.

- Martin Luther King, Jr.


True faith produces a life full of actions, not a head full of facts.
- Author Unknown


Adventure is a state of mind - and spirit. It comes with faith, for with complete faith, there is no fear of what faces you in life or death.

Faith

The fields were parched and brown from lack of rain, and the crops lay wilting from thirst. People were anxious and irritable as they searched the sky for any sign of relief. Days turned into arid weeks. No rain came.

The ministers of the local churches called for an hour of prayer on the town square the following Saturday. They requested that everyone bring an object of faith for inspiration.

At high noon on the appointed Saturday, the townspeople turned out en masse, filling the square with anxious faces and hopeful hearts. The ministers were touched to see the variety of objects clutched in prayerful hands — holy books, crosses, and rosaries.

When the hour ended, as if on magical command, a soft rain began to fall. Cheers swept the crowd as they held their treasured objects high in gratitude and praise. From the middle of the crowd one faith symbol seemed to overshadow all the others: A small nine-year-old child had brought an umbrella.

Faith has the power to change even hopeless situations into hopeful ones. There is so much power in having faith that even in the most hopeless situations we can keep ourselves peaceful and happy. When we are able to maintain this stage we find that things change for the better too. Faith works to change the situation. Let us think of one situation that we are not happy with. Let us then accept the situation as it is without expecting it to change. This acceptance will give the faith that things are happening for the best. With this faith even the most hopeless situation will turn positive.

- Bramha Kumaris, Mt. Abu

===========================================================

Sweetness is the ability to see the good in all things. Deep within each and every situation is something good. It only takes a little patience to look within and find it. When we are able to understand the secret behind what is happening, it automatically brings sweetness in our lives. Thus we will be able to spread this to others too. Whatever happens throughout the day, we should be able to see the good in it. Even if we are not able to discover something good at that moment, we should maintain the faith that whatever happens is for the best.

- Bramha Kumaris, Mt. Abu
