More quotes by Charles R. Swindoll
Worry is a complete waste of energy. It solves nothing.
Charles R. Swindoll
When we arrive at dilemmas in life and we are unable to decipher the right direction to go, if we hope to maintain our confidence in the process, we must (repeat must) allow the Lord to be our Guide, our Strength, our Wisdom - our all!
Charles R. Swindoll
Allowing anger to seethe on the back burner will lead to a very large lid blowing off a very hot pot.
Charles R. Swindoll
There is only one you. God wanted you to be you. Don't you dare change just because you're outnumbered!
Charles R. Swindoll
It is often just as sacred to laugh as it is to pray.

When we have God in clear focus, His powerful presence eclipses our fear.
Charles R. Swindoll
Fortunately Jesus didn't leave [the disciples]-or any of us-without hope or direction. Where we fail, Jesus succeeded. The only One who as able to recognize and follow His purpose from the beginning was Jesus. He alone was able to obey consistently and please God completely. And His divine mission was to make a way for each of us to do the same.
Charles R. Swindoll
If we choose to be offended when we don't get our own way, Then we're going to live constantly on the edge of anger. But if we say to ourselves, A merry heart does good like a medicine, It'll make all the difference in the world.
Charles R. Swindoll
Thanksgiving is a time of quiet reflection an annual reminder that God has, again, been ever so faithful. The solid and simple things of life are brought into clear focus.
Charles R. Swindoll
First impressions never have a second chance.
Charles R. Swindoll
Discipline is training that corrects and perfects our mental faculties or molds our moral character. Discipline is control gained by enforced obedience. It is the deliberate cultivation of inner order.
Charles R. Swindoll
Today is unique! It has never occurred and it will never be repeated. At midnight it will end, quietly, suddenly, totally. Forever. But the hours between now and then are opportunities with eternal possibilities.
Charles R. Swindoll
Every one of us can blame somebody for something that has happened in our lives. But don't waste your time. What we need most is a steady stream of love flowing among us. Love that quickly forgives, willingly overlooks, and refuses to take offense.
Charles R. Swindoll
Wisdom is looking at life from God's point of view. You look at life's difficulties and tests as God looks at them. You look at family life and child rearing as God looks at them. You interpret current events as God would interpret them. You see the truth even though all around you are deception and lies.
Charles R. Swindoll
Anxious. Intriguing word. It literally means, to be divided or distracted. It conveys the idea of being so mentally ill at ease that you cannot do what you need to do because you are so distracted in your thinking.
Charles R. Swindoll
While I was raised around churches and had gotten to know a few preachers fairly well, the thought never entered my head that I would one day stand and deliver. Not only was I not interested, I lived with a major struggle: I stuttered.
Charles R. Swindoll
If we want the advantages of love, then we must be willing to take the risks of love. And that requires vulnerability. Of course, we can refuse this path and trod another one devoid of openness. But the toll on such a road is extremely high.
Charles R. Swindoll
There is plenty of television. There are plenty of talk shows. There are plenty of comedians. But there is not plenty of worship of the true and living God.
Charles R. Swindoll
God's timing is always on time.
Charles R. Swindoll
If you want to be a person with a large vision, you must cultivate the habit of doing the little things well.
