More quotes by Charles R. Swindoll
Jesus' plan called for action, and how He expressed it predicted its success. He didn't say you 'might' be my witnesses, or you 'could' be my witnesses, or even you 'should' be my witnesses. He said you 'WILL' be my witnesses.
Charles R. Swindoll
For there to be true maturity, people must be given room to grow, which includes room to fail.
Charles R. Swindoll
People who inspire others are those who see invisible bridges at the end of dead-end streets
Charles R. Swindoll
We want the safety of yesterday even though we know it's not where God would have us.
Charles R. Swindoll
The stronger the winds, the deeper the roots, and the longer the winds, the more beautiful the tree.
Charles R. Swindoll
To require God to prove that He is able and willing to fulfill His promises would be proof positive that one does not trust Him.
Charles R. Swindoll
Joy is a deeply felt contentment that transcends difficult circumstances and derives maximum enjoyment from every good experience.
Charles R. Swindoll
...the single most important issue in all of life (is) your relationship with the living God... how you can know Him in a personal and meaningful way.

Our identity as Christians is strengthened as we stand in the lengthening shadows of saints down through the centuries, who have always answered back in antiphonal voice: 'He is risen, indeed!'
Charles R. Swindoll
Nothing is so common as unsuccessful men with talent. They lack only determination.
Charles R. Swindoll
'We really shouldn't look like a church.' I've heard that so much I want to vomit. 'Why?' I ask. 'Do you want your bank to look like a bank? Do you want your doctor's office to look like a doctor's office, or would you prefer your doctor to dress like a clown?'
Charles R. Swindoll
I know of no realm of life that can provide more companionship in a lonely world or greater feelings of security and purpose in chaotic times than the close ties of a family.
Charles R. Swindoll
The pursuit of happiness is a matter of choice...it is a positive attitude we choose to express. It is not a gift delivered to our door each morning, nor does it come through the window. And it is certain that our circumstances are not the things that make us joyful. If we wait for them to get just right, we will never laugh again.
Charles R. Swindoll
Please, put aside all excuses and ask yourself, What should I be doing? Yes, you alone can make a difference. The question is, will you?
Charles R. Swindoll
When you are giving people the gospel, you are giving them something to believe, and you have to set the stage for that. You don't just drive up and dump the truck and drive off.
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.

Nothing speaks louder or more powerfully than a life of integrity
Charles R. Swindoll
Your call will become clear as as your mind is transformed by the reading of Scripture and the internal work of God's Spirit. The Lord never hides His will from us. In time, as you obey the call first to follow, your destiny will unfold before you. The difficulty will lie in keeping other concerns from diverting your attention.

If I had my life to live over, I'd have spent more hours in worship.
