While our world is shaking and crumbling, we need to realize that one thing will never change, and that is God. He is the same today as he was ten million years ago, and will be the same ten million years from today.
Billy Graham

Don't let failure or disappointment cut you off from God or make you think that the future is hopeless. When God closes one door, He often opens another door - if we seek it.

Our World has becoime a neighbourhood without becoming a brotherhood.
Billy Graham

Billy Graham

When anyone has the power to destroy the whole human race in a matter of hours, it becomes a moral issue. The church must speak out.
Billy Graham

Commitment to great causes makes great men.
Billy Graham
Image
We are more united than ever before. I think this was exemplified in a very moving way when the members of our Congress stood shoulder to shoulder the other day and sang God Bless America.
Billy Graham
Image
There is nothing wrong with men possessing riches. The wrong comes when riches possess men.
Billy Graham
Image
I look forward to death with great anticipation, to meeting God face to face.

Mountaintops are for views and inspiration, but fruit is grown in the valleys.
Billy Graham
Image
Remember that you can pray any time, anywhere. Washing dishes, digging ditches, working in the office, in the shop, on the athletic field, even in prison - you can pray and know God hears!

Envy and greed starve on a steady diet of thanksgiving.

A Christian is someone who has turned to God from idols.
