Death wasn't part of God's original plan for humanity, and the Bible calls death an enemy - the last enemy to be destroyed.
A nation or civilization that continues to produce soft-minded men purchases its own spiritual death on the installment plan.
I have been really enjoying making a project out of seeking out an extremely healthy diet of raw, organic, vegan foods - and I plan on continuing to do so.
I studied to be an architect. And I find tremendous similarities between building a company and the design process. Businesses have to do their planning on the fly in a fashion similar to an architect sketching.
Nothing I do is by design. It's always the result of a happy accident. I didn't have a career plan. It has just become the way it is. It's all good fun.
I am placed in situations with opportunities in those situations that others are not. I don't believe that that is happenstance. I believe that there is a God that has a plan for me.
I'm walking this walk, and my life has nothing to do with my perception of the world. It's all God! How do I function within His plan?
I've told several writers this, and, again, I get back to it, but if you want to make God smile, tell him your plans.
That a great battle must soon be fought no one could doubt; but, in the apparent and perhaps real absence of plan on the part of Lee, it was impossible to foretell the precise scene of the encounter.
I never planned to win an Oscar. When I auditioned for 'Ray,' I was just thinking about what a great project it would be.
I'm no good at down-time. I panic slightly and then plan a project or set up a meeting about starting a project.
There are compelling reasons to implement a true America First immigration plan, starting with border security. We are a land of immigrants. Immigration, with assimilation, has generally been good for America.
I think 'Dilbert' will remain popular as long as employees are frustrated and they fear the consequences of complaining too loudly. 'Dilbert' is the designated voice of discontent for the workplace. I never planned it that way. It just happened.
The future is open, and I never make plans. As long as it's interesting to me, I try to live my life to the fullest.
It's just really hard to work and get better, building and planning for the future with the new Monte Carlo and keeping the race team intact and keeping them healthy.
I try to learn from the past, but I plan for the future by focusing exclusively on the present. That's where the fun is.
TV is easier: it's all planned out for you and the audience is there to see a show and they are all pumped up but when you are in a comedy club, you have to be really funny to win them over.
I didn't plan to be the rude middle-class comedian. You write a certain type of joke that you find funny, and mine happen to be often rude. Yes, it's juvenile, but that's me.
In preschool, I would plan out my show-and-tell every week to be funny and exciting. Then in first grade I wrote a play, and my classmates and I performed it as a puppet show.
I believe the favor of God on my life is not for me to keep to myself and become proud of, but to be used for others... I believe God has a plan for me in the entertainment world.
I believe that God has a specific plan and reason He created each one of us.
