More quotes by Charles R. Swindoll
God has somehow placed into Christian's insides a special something, that extra inner reservoir of power that is more than a match for the stuff life throws at us.
Charles R. Swindoll
How important is the heart! It is there that character is formed. It alone holds the secrets of true success. It's treasures are priceless - but they can be stolen.
Charles R. Swindoll
That's what this thing called Christian life is all about, isn't it. Going . . . yet not knowing. As followers of our Lord we believe He leads us in a certain direction . . . or in pursuit of a precise goal.
Charles R. Swindoll
In place of our exhaustion and spiritual fatigue, God will give us rest. All He asks is that we come to Him...that we spend a while thinking about Him, meditating on Him, talking to Him, listening in silence, occupying ourselves with Him - totally and thoroughly lost in the hiding place of His presence.
Charles R. Swindoll
Leadership is influence. To the extent we influence others, we lead them.
Charles R. Swindoll
There is no counsel like God's counsel. No comfort like His comfort. No wisdom more profound than the wisdom of the Scriptures.

The crisis of physical hunger is essentially a crisis of faith. What or whom will you trust to meet your most basic needs? Will you trust the God who made human bodies, or will you seek your own way? (Deuteronomy 8:1-3)
Charles R. Swindoll
God never calls His people to accomplish anything without promising to supply their every need.
Charles R. Swindoll
Faith itself cannot accomplish anything, yet without faith, no one can fly.
Charles R. Swindoll
Another problem with worry is that it makes you forget your worth. Worry makes you feel worthless, forgotten, and unimportant.
Charles R. Swindoll
We shouldn't deny the pain of what happens in our lives. We should just refuse to focus only on the valleys.
Charles R. Swindoll
Don't expect wisdom to come into your life like great chunks of rock on a conveyor belt. Wisdom comes privately from God as a byproduct of right decisions, godly reactions, and the application of spiritual principles to daily circumstances.
Charles R. Swindoll
When you suffer and lose, that does not mean you are being disobedient to God. In fact, it might mean you're right in the center of His will. The path of obedience is often marked by times of suffering and loss.
Charles R. Swindoll
The difference between something good and something great is attention to detail.
Charles R. Swindoll
When we panic, we instinctively turn to our own internal resources because we doubt Him.
Charles R. Swindoll
Vision encompasses vast vistas outside the realm of the predictable, the safe, the expected.
Charles R. Swindoll
It's a delightful thing to receive a good word just at your time of need. Encourage someone today.
Charles R. Swindoll
Choose to view life through God's eyes.
Charles R. Swindoll
It's easy to get attached to idols, good things inappropriately adored. But when you have Jesus in the centre of a room, everything else only junks up the decor.
Charles R. Swindoll
It's the nature of the beast within us to keep going back to the familiar rather than to strap on faith and face the future.
