More quotes by Charles R. Swindoll
Only you can determine your choice of attitude. Choose wisely, choose carefully, choose confidently!
Charles R. Swindoll
God alone is perfectly and consistently just. We forget God remembers. We see an action God sees a motive. This qualifies Him as the best recordkeeper and judge.
Charles R. Swindoll
You and I are, by birth, by nature, and by choice, inwardly depraved, which is to say that we are entirely corrupt. That's not to say that we have no good in us we do. However, anything good in us has been tainted with evil. It touches everything. Without the redeeming power of Christ we cannot halt our own moral slide.
Charles R. Swindoll
Authentic men aren't afraid to show affection, release their feelings, hug their children, cry when they're sad, admit it when they're wrong, and ask for help when they need it.

Charles R. Swindoll
This tendency to avoid problems and the emotional suffering inherent in them is the primary basis of all human mental illness
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
The skeptic may deny your doctrine or attack your church but he cannot honestly ignore the fact that your life has been changed.
Charles R. Swindoll
I think it is important to begin with a statement in your speech that grabs the attention of the audience. I try to make my opening line 15 words or less.
Charles R. Swindoll
You will find a common dichotomy in life. Those who don't have vision or determination, and refuse to dream the impossible, are always in the majority.
Charles R. Swindoll
God never asked us to meet life's pressures and demands on our own terms or by relying upon our own strength. Nor did He demands that we win His favor by assembling an impressive portfolio of good deeds. Instead, He invites us to enter His rest.
Charles R. Swindoll
When the Lord makes it clear you're to follow Him in this new direction, focus fully on Him and refuse to be distracted by comparisons with others.
Charles R. Swindoll
We aren't just thrown on this earth like dice tossed across a table. We are lovingly placed here for a purpose
