More quotes by Donald Miller
Maybe life isn't meaningless...Maybe just YOUR life is meaningless
Donald Miller
...she wanted God to make sense. He doesn't. He will make no more sense to me than I will make sense to an ant.
Donald Miller
Believing in God is as much like falling in love as it is making a decision. Love is both something that happens to you and something you decide upon.
Donald Miller
We don't think much about how our love stories will affect the world, but they do. Children learn what's worth living for and what's worth dying for by the stories they watch us live. I want to teach our children how to get scary close, and more, how to be brave. I want to teach them that love is worth what it costs.
Donald Miller
Don't let go of your strength or your beauty. It was given to you by God.
Donald Miller
The ambitions we have will become the stories we live.
Donald Miller
Meaning is something we experience more than we attain. It's like finding a nice, easy current in a river that carries you through life.
Donald Miller
There are things you cannot understand, and you must learn to live with this. Not only must you learn to live with this, you must learn to enjoy this.
Donald Miller
The trouble with deep belief is that it costs something. And there is something inside me, some selfish beast of a subtle thing that doesn't like the truth at all because it carries responsibility, and if I actually believe these things I have to do something about them. It is so, so cumbersome to believe anything. And it isn't cool.
Donald Miller
We don't think of our flaws as the glue that binds us to the people we love, but they are. Grace only sticks to your imperfections.
Donald Miller
There are two types of men in this world--one is looking for a woman to make his life complete and the other is looking for a woman to join his complete life.
Donald Miller
By accepting God's love for us, we fall in love with Him, and only then do we have the fuel we need to obey.
Donald Miller
I am something of a recluse by nature. I am that cordless screwdriver that has to charge for twenty hours to earn ten minutes use. I need that much downtime.
Donald Miller
I am human because God made me. I experience suffering and temptation because mankind chose to follow Satan. God is reaching out to me to rescue me. I am learning to trust Him, learning to live by His precepts that I might be preserved.
Donald Miller
The reason I like writing a memoir is because it isn't preachy.
Donald Miller
People want to join a great story. If you want to lead, tell one with your life.
Donald Miller
When something happens to you, you have two choices in how to deal with it. You can either get bitter, or get better.
Donald Miller
Humans are designed to seek comfort and order, and so if they have comfort and order, they tend to plant themselves, even if their comfort isn't all that comfortable. And even if they secretly want for something better.
Donald Miller
It blew my mind that what I was thinking was actually applicable to people's lives, and it certainly revolutionized family.
Donald Miller
I think it's very hard for us, for Christians, to understand that it's okay to read a book, for instance, on how to manage your time. There's nothing wrong with that.
