More quotes by Joshua Harris
Just because something is good doesn't mean we should pursue it right now. We have to remember that the right thing at the wrong time is the wrong thing.
Joshua Harris
When we define our happiness by some point in the future, it will never arrive. We'll keep waiting until tomorrow. If we allow impatience to govern us, we will miss the gift of the moment. We'll arrive at that point in time we expected to provide fulfillment and find it lacking.
Joshua Harris
During courtship, guarding each other's purity and refraining from intimacy are the acts of lovemaking.
Joshua Harris
I am a sucker for romance and I love girls and that is a terrible combination, because romance has the ability to overwhelm your perspective.
Joshua Harris
The doctrine of Scripture teaches us about the authority of God's Word. Scripture must be the final rule of faith and practice for our lives. Not our feelings or emotions. Not signs or prophetic words or hunches.
Joshua Harris
A lot of us have developed a diet mentality toward lust. We really want to cut back on lust because we know its not healthy and it makes us feel bad. But like some rich, calorie-laden chocolate dessert, lust is just too tasty to resist completely. Surely God will understand if we break our diet and nibble a little lust now and then.
Joshua Harris
If you're not ready to get married, don't grab at a relationship. Patiently wait for the right time to start one that can eventually lead to marriage. If you're ready for marriage and you're in a relationship, don't let impatience cause you to rush. Take your time. Enjoy where God has the two of you right now.
Joshua Harris
God will make right all that is wrong, He will take away the lingering effect of sin and what's not right in our lives. He knows how painful life in this world can be.
Joshua Harris
The most romantic things a man can do for a woman are the little things that let her know that she's on his mind and in his heart.
Joshua Harris
If you want to grow, find men who provoke you.
Joshua Harris
Women need to remember that if nature has made them plain, grace can make them beautiful, and if nature has made them beautiful, good deeds can add to their beauty. Grace will make you beautiful and will attract truly godly men to you. Make godliness and inward beauty your priority.
Joshua Harris
But remember, continuing a wrong relationship only increases the pain when it finally does end.
Joshua Harris
True love isn't expressed in passionately whispered words an intimate kiss or a embrace before two people are married, love is expressed in self-control, patience, even words left unsaid.
Joshua Harris
Many couples have made commitments to sexual purity, but instead of adopting a lifestyle that supports this commitment, they continue relationships that encourage physical expression and place themselves in dangerous settings. The path you take with your feet should never contradict the conviction of your heart.
Joshua Harris
You get up and you preach a sermon and people walk away thinking what a great guy - and that's a failure as a pastor. Our job is to proclaim Christ.
Joshua Harris
I won't stick around to see how much temptation I can take. God is not impressed with my ability to stand up to sin. He is more impressed by the obedience I show when I run from it.
Joshua Harris
Intimacy without commitment, like icing without cake, can be sweet, but it ends up making us sick.
Joshua Harris
We want to stay on the straight and narrow path and serve God, yet we continue a practice that often pulls us in the wrong direction.
Joshua Harris
Sex is not the problem [Lust is]
Joshua Harris
Terms don't define our lives our lives define our terms.
