More quotes by 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
Charles R. Swindoll
There are times we need to tell ourselves, Good job! when we know that is true.
Charles R. Swindoll
Many seducers clutter the simple message of the gospel with legalistic additions, with convoluted attempts to legitimize moral compromise, and with psychological theories that turn churches into relational support groups instead of houses of worship.
Charles R. Swindoll
It is often just as sacred to laugh as it is to pray.
Charles R. Swindoll
You can choose to be a drag and a burden, or an inspiration and encouragement.
Charles R. Swindoll
Nothing speaks louder or more powerfully than a life of integrity
Charles R. Swindoll
The secret to responsible trust is acceptance. Acceptance is taking from God's hand absolutely anything He gives, looking into His face in trust and thanksgiving, knowing that the confinement of the hedge we're in is good and for His glory. Even though what we're enduring may be painful, it's good simply because God Himself has allowed it.
Charles R. Swindoll
An anniversary says, Think of the dreams you have weathered together. They are intimate accomplishments.

Charles R. Swindoll
On tough days, you gotta have heart. Don't quit, whatever you do. Persevere.
Charles R. Swindoll

Charles R. Swindoll
Think first. Talk less. Start today.
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 no counsel like God's counsel. No comfort like His comfort. No wisdom more profound than the wisdom of the Scriptures.
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
Know yourself, like yourself, be yourself.
Charles R. Swindoll
We cannot change our past. We can not change the fact that people act in a certain way. We can not change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude.
Charles R. Swindoll
If I had my life to live over, I'd have spent more hours in worship.
Charles R. Swindoll
Jesus has prepared the way and has made following our destiny possible, whereas we are helpless by ourselves. We can find and fulfill our purpose by responding to the clear, simple call of Jesus Christ: Follow Me. He is the doorway to fulfilling our destiny, where our divine design and God-ordained purpose live in perfect harmony.
Charles R. Swindoll
Don't get older get better: Live realistically. Give generously. Adapt willingly. Trust fearlessly. Rejoice daily.
