~ Atlantic Ocean ~
“Who has measured the waters in the hollow of His hand,
or with the breadth of His hand marked off the heavens?
Who has held the dust of the earth in a basket,
or weighed the mountains on the scales
and the hills in a balance?
Who can fathom the Spirit of the Lord,
or instruct the Lord as his counselor?
Whom did the Lord consult to enlighten Him,
and who taught Him the right way?
Who was it that taught Him knowledge,
or showed Him the path of understanding?
Surely the nations are like a drop in a bucket;
they are regarded as dust on the scales;
He weighs the islands as though they were fine dust.”

“God used beautiful mathematics in creating the world.”
~ Paul Dirac ~

“God has given us two hands, one to receive with, the other to give.” ~ Billy Graham ~

“When the solution is simple, 
God is answering.” 

“God will not permit any troubles to come upon us, unless he has a specific plan by which great blessing can come out of difficulty.” ~ Peter Marshall ~
“The world will never starve for want of wonders.”
~ G. K. Chesterton ~
“Only God can fully satisfy the hungry heart of man.”
~ Hugh Black ~
“Beauty is God’s handwriting.” ~ Charles Kingsley ~
“I can see how it might be possible for a man to look down upon the earth and be an atheist, but I cannot conceive how he could look up into the heavens and say there is no God.”
~ Abraham Lincoln ~
“The universe is centered on neither the earth nor the sun.
It is centered on God.”
~ Alfred Noyes ~
“We shall steer safely through every storm, so long as our heart is right, our intention fervent, our courage steadfast, and our trust fixed on God.” ~ St. Francis De Sales ~
“God gave you a gift of 86,400 seconds today. Have you used one to say thank you?” ~ William Arthur Ward ~
“Is your place a small place? Tend it with care; He set you there. Is your place a large place? Guard it with care! He set you there. Whate’er your place, it is not yours alone, but His who set you there.” ~ John Oxenham ~
“Our God is at home with the rolling spheres,
And at home with broken hearts.”~ M. P. Ferguson ~
“I love to think of nature as an unlimited broadcasting station, through which God speaks to us ever hour, if we will only tune in.” ~ George Washington Carver ~

“Without the Way there is no going;
without the Truth there is no knnowing;
without the Life there is no living.”

“You can’t analyze God. He is too awesome, too big, too mysterious. I know now, Lord, why you utter no answer. You Yourself are the answer.” ~ C. S. Lewis ~

“To fall in love with God is the greatest of all romances; 
to seek him, the greatest adventure;
to find him, the greatest human achievement.”
~ Raphael Simon ~ 
In [Christ] are hidden all the treasurers of wisdom and knowledge….Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, to God who alone is wise, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen”
