I took William Zinsser's advice that you write to yourself and you hope that there are people out there who are like you.

Donald Miller
Even our beliefs have become trend statements. We don’t even believe things because we believe them anymore. We only believe things because they are cool things to believe.

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

Donald Miller
If I use the Bible to prove I am right, I have yet to be humbled by the beautiful truths of the Bible.
Donald Miller
I am early in my story, but I believe I will stretch out into eternity, and in heaven I will reflect upon these early days, these days when it seemed God was down a dirt road, walking toward me. Years ago He was a swinging speck in the distance now He is close enough I can hear His singing. Soon I will see the lines on His face.
Donald Miller
The greatest stories go to those who don’t give in to fear.
Donald Miller
Suffering ceases to be suffering when you have a redemptive perspective.
Donald Miller
I want to start replacing my “fix” response with an “enjoy” response and just let people be themselves.
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
Today I wonder why it is God refers to Himself as 'Father' at all. This, to me, in light of the earthly representation of the role, seems a marketing mistake.
Donald Miller
One of the things I associate with God is a sunrise. How many sunrises have you missed over the years, and God created that?
