785 Quotes About Will

Whoever loves God must do the will of God.

Will before weapons

A perfect and true will can only exist when we have been entirely taken up into God's will and no longer have our own will; whoever does this the more, the more and the more truly they are rooted in God. Indeed, a single Ave Maria spoken in this spirit, when we have stripped ourselves of ourselves, is worth more than the repetition of a thousand psalters without it. In fact, a single step would be better with it than to cross the sea without it.

The will is stronger than anything else. Everything must go down before the will, for that comes from God: a pure and strong will is omnipotent.

Despair is an absence of will, not hope.

Defeat is nothing like determined willl to bounce back.

It is from the sacrifice of the will in Gethsemane that the sacrifice of the life on Calvary derives its value.

People think that what God wills must inevitably take place. This is by no means the case. God wills a great deal of blessing for His people that never comes to them. He wills it most earnestly, but they do not will it, and it cannot come to them.

If you have the will to do something, and you keep at it, and you don't give up, you can do anything. And there's no greater will than the will to love who you want.
