More quotes by 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.
Charles R. Swindoll
If our perfect Lord is gracious enough to take our worst, and ugliest, our most boring, our least successful, and forgive them, burying them in the depths of the sea, then it's high time we give each other a break.
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.
Charles R. Swindoll
It is easy for Christians to have the false impression that once we have established a relationship with Christ, which we believe sets us right with God, the problems of life will somehow scoot away or they will slowly be removed from our lives.
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.
Charles R. Swindoll
Vision encompasses vast vistas outside the realm of the predictable, the safe, the expected.
Charles R. Swindoll
Worry erases the promises of God from your mind.
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
You know one of the most encouraging things about faith? It pleases God.
Charles R. Swindoll
There is plenty of television. There are plenty of talk shows. There are plenty of comedians. But there is not plenty of worship of the true and living God.
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
Faith itself cannot accomplish anything, yet without faith, no one can fly.
Charles R. Swindoll
The more impossible the situation, the greater God accomplishes His work.
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
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
God presents the Sabbath rest as a shelter we can enter. (Hebrews 4:1-11)
Charles R. Swindoll
The habit of always putting off an experience until you can afford it, or until the time is right, or until you know how to do it is one of the greatest burglars of joy. Be deliberate, but once you've made up your mind -jump in.
Charles R. Swindoll
Grace is ours. Let's live it! Deny it or debate it and we kill it.
Charles R. Swindoll
I'm glad . . . that Edison didn't give up on the light bulb. That Luther refused to back down. That Michelangelo kept painting. That Lindbergh kept flying.
Charles R. Swindoll
When we panic, we instinctively turn to our own internal resources because we doubt Him.
Charles R. Swindoll
