The resurrection blasts apart the finality of death, providing an alternative to the stifling, settling dust of death and opens the way to new life.
Billy Graham
Image
Everything we have comes from (God's) hands even if we worked for it or earned it, He still gave us the ability and the opportunity to do it.
Billy Graham
Image
I can't explain 9/11, except the evil of man.
Billy Graham
Image
Many people have come to Christ as a result of my participation in presenting the Gospel to them. It's all the work of the Holy Spirit.
Billy Graham
Image
In heaven I'll wish with all my heart that I could reclaim a thousandth part of the time I've let slip through my fingers, that I could call back those countless conversations which could have glorified my Lord-but didn't.

My home is in Heaven. I'm just traveling through this world.

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!
Billy Graham
Image
The Christian life is not a constant high. I have my moments of deep discouragement. I have to go to God in prayer with tears in my eyes, and say, 'O God, forgive me,' or 'Help me.'
Billy Graham

God measures people by the small dimensions of humility and not by the bigness of their achievements or the size of their capabilities.
Billy Graham
Image
Down inside we have a longing for God-what Pascal called the vacuum which God left behind.
Billy Graham
Image
Someday your life will be over, no matter how much attention you give to your health. Will you look back with regret, because you nourished your body but starved your soul?
Billy Graham
Image
Hundreds of passages point to a time of judgment for every person who has ever lived-none will escape. If you took all the references to judgment out of the Bible, you would have little Bible left.
Billy Graham
Image
It's sometimes comical to hear the younger generation ask their peers to repeat themselves.
Billy Graham
Image
Don't let circumstances distress you. Rather, look for the will of God for your life to be revealed in and through those circumstances.
Billy Graham
Image
When our faith becomes nothing more than a series of rules and regulations, joy flees and our love for Christ grows cold.
Billy Graham
Image
I don't think I get angry.
Billy Graham
Image
I think we are trying to run the space age with horse and buggy moral and spiritual equipment. Technology you see has no morals and with no moral restraints man will destroy himself ecologically, militarily, or in some other way. Only God can give a person moral restraints and spiritual strength.
Billy Graham
Image
Whatever affliction comes in our life, our Lord goes into the valley with us, leading us by the hand, even carrying us when it is necessary.
Billy Graham
Image
We hurt people by being too busy. Too busy to notice their needs. Too busy to drop that note of comfort or encouragement or assurance of love. Too busy to listen when someone needs to talk. Too busy to care.
