More quotes by Donald Miller
Self-discipline will never make us feel righteous or clean accepting God's love will.
Donald Miller
I think, in the grand epic, Jesus is the hero of our stories. And our stories, as they were, are subplots in a grand epic and our job is not to be the hero of any story. Our job is to be a saint in a story that he is telling.
Donald Miller
I know, from the three visits I made to him, the blended composite of love and fear that exists only in a boy's notion of his father.
Donald Miller
The truth is, if what we choose to do with our lives won't make a story meaningful, it won't make a life meaningful either.
Donald Miller
Good writers show rather than tell. Stories are told in action. Life stories are no different.
Donald Miller
...a beggar's kingdom is better than a proud man's delusion.
Donald Miller
But the people who took the bus didn't experience the city as we experienced the city. The pain made the city more beautiful. The story made us different characters than we would have been if we had skipped the story and showed up at the ending an easier way.
Donald Miller
Right, but you know, what would any of us lose by losing our possessions. Maybe we would gain something, like relationships, like the beauty of good friends, intimacy, you know what I mean, man? Like we wouldn't be losing anything if we lost our stuff, we'd be gaining everything.
Donald Miller
Some people skip through life. Others are dragged through it. I sometimes wonder if we are moving through time, or whether time is moving through us. Light, unlike anything else in the universe is not effected by time. Light exists outside of time.. It is still a mystery to physicists.
Donald Miller
The early bird catches the worm. But I have never been one for worms. I am not sure what the late bird catches, but I will feast with him today. Probably porridge.
Donald Miller
The economy is turning around, so that's going to help a little bit.
Donald Miller
We shouldn’t be afraid to embrace whimsy, that nagging idea that life could be magical it could be special if we were only willing to take a few risks.
Donald Miller
Lets choose to do something really difficult, something that saves lives, and let's do that thing with people we love.
Donald Miller
If the abortion issue is important to me, this is how you tackle that issue.
Donald Miller
God doesn't give us crying, pooping children because he wants to advance our careers.
Donald Miller
I think the best thing a person can do is to read through the Gospels in the Bible and really look at Jesus, because if a person does this, they will realize that the Jesus they learned about in Sunday school or the Jesus they hear jokes about or the skinny, Gandhi Jesus that exists in their imaginations isn't anything like the real Jesus at all.
Donald Miller
...I should have people around bugging me and getting under my skin because without people I could not grow - I could not grow in God, and I could not grow as a human.
Donald Miller
the times we worked harder to make the day stand out. our story demanded that we change and so we did.
Donald Miller
To be in a relationship with God is to be loved purely and furiously. And a person who thinks himself unlovable cannot be in a relationship with God because he can't accept who God is a Being that is love. We learn that we are lovable or unlovable from other people. That is why God tells us so many times to love each other.
Donald Miller
Great writers know what to cut out. It's the same in life. Clear ambitions. Clear relationships. This is the stuff of good story.
Donald Miller
