Accumulating love brings luck, accumulating hatred brings calamity.

Paulo Coelho

Sometimes, when God blessed me with something, I would feel guilty. Then I realized this was wrong, because a blessing is a blessing is a blessing.

Reinhard Bonnke

Prayer turns ordinary mortals into men of power. It brings power. It brings fire. It brings rain. It brings life. It brings God.

Samuel Chadwick

Each morning brings a hidden blessing; a blessing which is unique to that day, and which cannot be kept or re-used. If we do not use this miracle today, it will be lost.

Paulo Coelho

The Law of God reaches into every area of life, and it brings about incredible blessing and incredible freedom.

Randall Terry

In prosperity God is heard, and that is a blessing; but in adversity God is seen, and that is a greater blessing.

Charles Spurgeon

The liberty of the press is a blessing when we are inclined to write against others, and a calamity when we find ourselves overborne by the multitude of our assailants.

Samuel Johnson

It is not every calamity that is a curse, and early adversity is often a blessing. Surmounted difficulties not only teach, but hearten us in our future struggles.

James Sharp

But the blessing Christ promised, the blessing of great reward, is a reward of grace. The blessing is promised even though it is not earned. Augustine said it this way: Our rewards in heaven are a result of God's crowning His own gifts.

R. C. Sproul

There's no such thing as luck. These are blessings. God endows them upon you. He makes you a blessing to become a blessing.

Steve Harvey

Calamity, war, famine, plague, death, adversity, disease, injury do not necessarily produce repentance. We may become better in a calamity but it does not necessarily make us repent. The essence of repentance is that we cannot be repentant until we confront our own self righteousness with God's righteousness.

Fulton J. Sheen

[Every disappointment or misfortune can become a blessing in disguise, for which we should be grateful. But only if the hidden blessing is anticipated, expected and searched for will it be found and recognised as such and the most made of it. For example...] Many a man curses the rain that falls upon his head, and knows not that it brings abundance to drive away hunger.

Saint Basil

Before we can pray for God's blessing, we should ask ourselves if our disobedience could hinder his blessing.

Max Anders

Worship is giving God the best that He has given you. Be careful what you do with the best you have, Whenever you get a blessing from God, give it back to Him as a love gift. Take time to meditate before God and offer the blessing back to Him in a deliberate act of worship.

Oswald Chambers

Your calamity was sent to bring you back to the Quran. But the greater calamity is that you missed the point.

Yasmin

It is generally true that all that is required to make men unmindful of what they owe to God for any blessing, is, that they should receive that blessing often and regularly.
