More quotes by Charles R. Swindoll
When we have God in clear focus, His powerful presence eclipses our fear.
Charles R. Swindoll
Worry is characteristic of the heathen, not the Christian.
Charles R. Swindoll
Strength comes from choosing to fully trust, pray, and praise. Our circumstances may not change, but in the process we change.
Charles R. Swindoll
God's forgiveness extends to the worst offenders and to anyone who wishes to receive it-not because of who we are, but because of who He is.
Charles R. Swindoll
At least one indication of unbelief is the tendency to measure life's challenges against our own adequacy instead of God's promises. To enter our Sabbath rest, we must put an end to self-reliance - trusting in our own abilities to overcome difficulties, rise above challenges, escape tragedies, or achieve personal greatness.
Charles R. Swindoll
First impressions never have a second chance.
Charles R. Swindoll
Stand still... and refuse to retreat. Look at it as God looks at it and draw upon His power to hold up under the blast.

Have you ever studied Jesus's approach to talking with people? He didn't always fill the space with answers for them. Let's learn to do that with our fellow learners. Let's give them room to think and answer for themselves.
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
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
The more impossible the situation, the greater God accomplishes His work.
Charles R. Swindoll
God never calls His people to accomplish anything without promising to supply their every need.
Charles R. Swindoll
Refuse to let your situation determine your attitude.
Charles R. Swindoll
You will find a common dichotomy in life. Those who don't have vision or determination, and refuse to dream the impossible, are always in the majority.
Charles R. Swindoll
Boldness in the course of a noble fight is worth the risk... If you stand on truth, you'll only regret your timidity later, but you'll never regret being bold.
Charles R. Swindoll
If you never get criticized, chances are you aren't getting anything done.
Charles R. Swindoll
The wonderful thing about God is he knows what we need to persuade us.
Charles R. Swindoll
If we choose to be offended when we don't get our own way, Then we're going to live constantly on the edge of anger. But if we say to ourselves, A merry heart does good like a medicine, It'll make all the difference in the world.
Charles R. Swindoll
One of the marks of maturity is the ability to disagree without becoming disagreeable

I'm here today to warn you: I want you to watch out for the adversary. Guard yourself from any spirit of entitlement. Restrain any and all subtle temptation to gain attention or to find ways to promote yourself.
