Charles Stanley
Thank the Lord for using each person as a tool in your life to deepen your insight into His grace and conforming you to the image of His Son.
Charles Stanley
Discipline is something we despise for the moment.... We all look for a place to run, an excuse with which to stall. No one enjoys it. Yet those of us who have endured it know that the fruit it produces and the pain from which it ultimately spares us makes it worth the agony.
Charles Stanley
God is responsible for the consequences of our obedience, WE are responsible for the consequences of our disobedience

God's plan for enlarging His kingdom is so simple - one person telling another about the Savior. Yet we're busy and full of excuses. Just remember, someone's eternal destiny is at stake. The joy you'll have when you meet that person in heaven will far exceed any discomfort you felt in sharing the gospel.

Charles Stanley
I would never discredit reading the Scriptures, but it is important to meditate on it.
Charles Stanley

Charles Stanley
Earthly wisdom is doing what comes naturally. Godly wisdom is doing what the Holy Spirit compels us to do.
Charles Stanley
When we surrender to His timing, He does mighty things in and for us, according to His will and His timing. God acts on behalf of those who wait for Him.
Charles Stanley
American foreign policy and military might have opened an opportunity for the Gospel in the land of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.
Charles Stanley
Helping someone come to a saving knowledge of Christ is the greatest achievement possible.
Charles Stanley
When we learn from experience, the scars of sin can lead us to restoration and a renewed intimacy with God.
Charles Stanley
God is looking for imperfect men and women who have learned to walk in moment-by-momen t dependence on the Holy Spirit. Christians who have come to terms with their inadequacies, fears, and failures. Believers who have become discontent with 'surviving' and have taken the time to investigate everything God has to offer in this life.
Charles Stanley
In times of defeat, we never know how close we are to victory. In every event of failure, God has planted a seed of success.
Charles Stanley
Understand that it is often unwise to forgive face to face. This tends to make the other person feel 'put down' and make you look holier-than-thou.
