More quotes by Francine Rivers
Maybe it's only those who've made such chaos of their lives who can understand the heights and depths of God's mercy.
Francine Rivers

Francine Rivers
The battle would not take place in the mountains, valleys, or plains of Israel. It would take place in the wilderness of the human heart.
Francine Rivers
Better than sweet tea on a veranda. I want to live at Belmont!

As gentle a man as he was, as tender as was his heart, there was nothing weak about Michael Hosea. He was the strongest-minded man Joseph had ever met. A Man like Noah. A Man like the Shepherd-king David. A man after God's own heart.

Love is the way back into Eden. It is the way back to life.
Francine Rivers
I used to believe the purpose in life is to find happiness. I don’t believe that anymore. I believe we are all given gifts from our Father, and that our purpose is to offer them to Him. He knows how He wants us to use them.

Love God and He will enable you to love others even when they disappoint you.
Francine Rivers
my love isn't a weapon, it's a lifeline, reach out and take hold, and don't let go!

Beloved, surrender wholeheartedly to Jesus Christ, who loves you. As you drink from the deep well of Scripture, the Lord will refresh you and cleanse you, mold you and re-create you through His Living Word. For the Bible is the very breath of God, giving life eternal to those who seek Him.

Calamity is a blessing when it brings one to God. --- Hadassah
Francine Rivers
You said go to her, and I let pride stand in my way. You said she needed me, and I didn't believe. You said love her, and I thought it would be easy.
Francine Rivers
Better the discomfort that leads to repentance and restoration than temporal comfort and eternal damnation.
Francine Rivers
I've done everything for the wrong reasons. All the good works people credit to me are nothing because I did them expecting God to repay me. I thought if I worked hard enough, God would have to give me what I wanted. The truth is I've never served the Lord at all. I was always serving myself.
Francine Rivers
I gave up what I can't keep for something I can never lose.
Francine Rivers
We bear the consequences for what we have done to ourselves, and for the sin that rules this world. Jesus forgave the thief, but he didn't take him down off the cross.
Francine Rivers
And if it (life) were easier, would i have given my heart so fully to God? Put your hope in Him, and you won't be disappointed by what life offers
Francine Rivers
Jesus has given me eternal life in Him. Let them take my life here, but God holds me in the palm of His hand and no one can take Him from me.
Francine Rivers
That is one of the reasons I write: to feel the Presence of God and know He is speaking to me in a very personal way, instructing me, correcting me, redirecting me.
