More quotes by Joel Osteen
I think God gives every one of us our own will, and unfortunately, some people choose to do evil things with it.
Joel Osteen
I'm trying to make God more relevant in our society. And I think talking in everyday terms and making sure people can understand it - I think that's important.

We never like to miss an opportunity to make Jesus the Lord of our life. That's why I never like to have a service without giving an invitation or writing a book, without giving an invitation and presenting that truth. I believe this is the whole key to living your best life, living a fulfilled life or becoming a better you.
Joel Osteen
The greatest gift you can give someone is your time, your attention, your love, your concern.

Isn't it funny how babies laugh a lot? I read a toddler, a young child laughs 300 times a day. The average adult laughs, like, four times a day. God put it in them. He put the laugh in us, but I think sometimes we let life get us down, you know, have bad breaks, and we lose our breaks.

I'm getting better every day in every way.

You weren’t created to simply exist, to endure, or to go through the motions you were created to be really alive.
Joel Osteen
Often, out of our greatest rejection comes our greatest direction.
Joel Osteen
If it’s not meeting a need, turn it into a seed. Remember, we will reap what we sow. When you do good for other people, that’s when God is going to make sure that His abundant blessings overtake you.
Joel Osteen
I don't have to figure out how God is going to solve my problem. I don't have to understand how He's going to bring it to pass. That's His responsibility. My job is to simply believe that He will.
Joel Osteen
The people God put in your life are not there by accident. Don’t get so busy that you just give them your leftover time.
Joel Osteen
I tell people all the time, preached a couple Sundays about it. I'm for everybody. You may not agree with me, but to me it's not my job to try to straighten everybody out.
Joel Osteen
Before you leave the house, you need to make up your mind that you’re going to stay positive and enjoy the day no matter what comes your way. You have to decide ahead of time.

Be careful what you say. You can say something hurtful in ten seconds, but ten years later, the wounds are still there.
