Faith, culture, structure and guidance are good things. ~Bethenny Frankel
#quotes #bethenny-frankel #faith #culture #guidance

What exists is a godly existence, a divine existence. God not as a person but as a presence certainly exists. But to understand that presence, you have to understand your own inner presence first, because it is from there that you can take off, it is from there that you can have the first glimpse of what godliness is. If you have not known yourself you will never know God. ~Rajneesh
#quotes #rajneesh #god #existence
