If we want the advantages of love, then we must be willing to take the risks of love. And that requires vulnerability. Of course, we can refuse this path and trod another one devoid of openness. But the toll on such a road is extremely high.
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
If you want to be a person with a large vision, you must cultivate the habit of doing the little things well.

Next time you're faced with a credit-purchase decision, wait. Don't say no necessarily. Just wait. I challenge you to present your need to the Lord before presenting it to a bank, and see what He does with it.
Charles R. Swindoll
As far back as I can remember, my mother would have me down by the bed at night with her, praying. I can still hear her voice calling my name to God and telling him that she wanted me to follow him in whatever he called me to do.

Acceptance is taking from God's hand absolutely anything He gives, looking into His face in trust and thanksgiving.

Anyone who influences others is a leader.

Peter must have thought, Who am I compared to Mr. Faithfulness (John)? But Jesus clarified the issue. John was responsible for John. Peter was responsible for Peter. And each had only one command to heed: Follow Me. (John 21:20-22)
Charles R. Swindoll
It's not enough merely to believe there is a God. You must believe in the God who is there.

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