More quotes by Charles R. Swindoll
Our great tendency in this age is to increase our speed, to run faster, even in the Christian life. In the process our walk with God stays shallow, and our tank runs low on fumes. Intimacy offers a full tank of fuel that can only be found by pulling up closer to God, which requires taking necessary time and going to the effort to make that happen.

Times may be hard and people may be demanding, but never forget that life is special. Every single day is a special day. God is at work in you!
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.

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
I believe firmly in God's control in life.

Prayer is an investment. The time you dedicate to prayer isn't lost it will return dividends far greater than what a few moments spent on a task ever could. If we fail to cultivate this discipline, prayer winds up being our last resort rather than our first response.
Charles R. Swindoll
I let people see the cracks in my life. We can't be phony. We've got to keep it real.
Charles R. Swindoll
Vision encompasses vast vistas outside the realm of the predictable, the safe, the expected.
Charles R. Swindoll
You see, when we talk about perfect trust, we're talking about what gives us roots, character, the stability to handle the hard times. Trusting God doesn't alter our circumstances. Perfect trust in Him changes us.
Charles R. Swindoll
Faith itself cannot accomplish anything, yet without faith, no one can fly.
Charles R. Swindoll
I am often the brunt of my own humor.
Charles R. Swindoll
On tough days, you gotta have heart. Don't quit, whatever you do. Persevere.

Joy is a deeply felt contentment that transcends difficult circumstances and derives maximum enjoyment from every good experience.

Rejoicing is clearly a spiritual command. To ignore it, I need to remind you, is disobedience.
