The greatest act QUOTES

1 " ...We must say to ourselves something like this: 'Well, when Jesus looked down from the cross, he didn't think " I am giving myself to you because you are so attractive to me." No, he was in agony, and he looked down at us - denying him, abandoning him, and betraying him - and in the greatest act of love in history, he STAYED. He said, " Father, forgive them, they don't know what they are doing." He loved us, not because we were lovely to him, but to make us lovely. That is why I am going to love my spouse.' Speak to your heart like that, and then fulfill the promises you made on your wedding day. "

2 " Letting go of people doesn’t mean you never loved them. Sometimes, it is the greatest act of love because it teaches them to be accountable for how they treat people who care. Maybe, not now, but years from now, they will look back and realize that kindness is more than yelling casual suggestions to a person that is drowning in their sea of apathy. "

― Shannon L. Alder

3 " I am convinced the greatest act of love we can ever perform for people is to tell them about God’s love for them in Christ. "

― Billy Graham

4 " This is the purpose of life, is it not? To create life is the greatest act a living creature can commit. "

― Michael A. Stackpole , I, Jedi (Star Wars)

5 " Am I afraid to die? I am every time I let myself be seduced by the noisy voices of my world telling me that my " little life" is all I have and advising me to cling to it with all my might. But when I let these voices move to the background of my life and listen to that small soft voice calling me the Beloved, I know that there is nothing to fear and that dying is the greatest act of love, the act that leads me into the eternal embrace of my God whose love is everlasting. "

6 " Without doubt, it is the greatest act of courage that is often the most fearful. "

― Christine Brodien-Jones , The Owl Keeper
