More quotes by Charles R. Swindoll
We can't solve modern problems by going back in time. Retreating to the safety of the familiar is an understandable response, but God has called us to a life of faith. And faith requires us to face the unknown while trusting Him completely.
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
Trusting God doesn't alter our circumstances. Perfect trust in Him changes us.
Charles R. Swindoll
Encouragement is awesome. It (can) actually change the course of another person's day, week, or life.
Charles R. Swindoll
Not once does the Bible report that (Jesus) rushed anywhere. He was often busy, but never in a mad dash. And yet He perfectly accomplished all the Father designed for Him to do.
Charles R. Swindoll
To be used of God. Is there anything more encouraging, more fulfilling? Perhaps not, but there is something more basic: to meet with God. To linger in His presence, to shut out the noise of the city and, in quietness, give Him the praise He deserves. Before we engage ourselves in His work, let's meet Him in His Word... in prayer... in worship.

Only you can determine your choice of attitude. Choose wisely, choose carefully, choose confidently!

When it seems like that's all there is, remember all you have in Him.

What is God looking for? He is looking for men and women whose hearts are completely His - completely.
Charles R. Swindoll
God has called His creation to find satisfaction in a personal relationship with Him, and stop trying to manage the world by conforming it to our expectations, and to allow Him to govern His creation. He continues to say through an ancient Hebrew worship song, Be still and know that I am God!
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
Worry is characteristic of the heathen, not the Christian.
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.

No marriage is too dead for the Lord to restore.
Charles R. Swindoll
Christlikeness is a journey, not a destination. The joy is in the journey.

Man is the only animal that when you pat him on the head, his head swells up.
Charles R. Swindoll
When each elder or pastor has his will aligned with the Lord's, we waste no time arguing for our own.
Charles R. Swindoll
Encouragement is awesome. Think about it. It has the capacity to lift a man's or a woman's shoulders. To breathe fresh air into the fading embers of a smoldering dream. To actually change the course of another human being's day, week, or life.
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
I believe firmly in God's control in life.
