It isn't necessary to trust God when we have full understanding and knowledge of what He is doing on our behalf... Trust is needed in those times when, for whatever reason, we are not hearing from God as clearly as we would like.
Joyce Meyer
Image
What's real freedom? Real freedom is being able to not have my way and still be just as happy as if I did.
Joyce Meyer
Image
There's no happier person than a truly thankful, content person.
Joyce Meyer
Image
Simplicity is a key to avoiding complication. Part of the definition of simplicity is 'not complex or complicated sincere.'
Joyce Meyer
Image
It's like a jar of salad dressing sitting on a shelf... most of the seasoning settles to the bottom of the bottle. But when you shake that bottle up, all the ingredients mix together and then the dressing can add flavor to a salad. In the same way, we can stir ourselves up and regain the reverence, respect and awe we once had for the Lord.
Joyce Meyer

I wonder how many times people give up just before a breakthrough - when they are on the very brink of success.
Joyce Meyer
Image
Contentment with life is not a feeling, but it is a decision we must make. Contentment does not mean that we never want to see change or improvement, but it does mean we can be happy where we are and will do the best we can with what we have. It also means we will maintain an attitude that allows us to enjoy the gift of life.

I can honestly tell you that without God I would not be who I am today. He has done such an amazing work in my life and I want everyone to have the same freedom.
Joyce Meyer
Image
Until we accept and approve of ourselves, no amount of approval from others will keep us permanently secure.
Joyce Meyer
Image
The flesh, or human nature, is generally lazy and self-centered.
Joyce Meyer
Image
When you're hurt very badly in your childhood, the area that it has the greatest effect on is relationships. Once you feel like you can't trust people, once you feel like that they don't care about you, that they're really not going to take care of you, it gets very difficult in relationships.
Joyce Meyer
Image
Better to have a big goal and reach half of it than to have no goal and reach all of it.
Joyce Meyer
Image
Passion is a decision about how we will approach life, before it becomes a feeling!
Joyce Meyer
Image
Even though God loves us, we still have a problem: sin. It's important for us to learn how to confront sin and overcome it, because while God loves sinners, He hates sin. And He hates it because of what it does to us and how it keeps us from the abundant life Jesus died to give us.
Joyce Meyer
Image
I used to let other people's struggles affect my happiness. If they weren't happy, there was no way I was going to be happy. The opposite was also true: If I wasn't happy, I didn't want anyone around me to be happy.
Joyce Meyer
Image
We are not a failure just because we fail at something. Nobody is a failure unless they quit trying!
Joyce Meyer
Image
Life will not always change, so we must be willing to change.
Joyce Meyer
Image
Home Run portrays the church in its beauty--true life transformation through real and honest relationships with one another and with Jesus.
Joyce Meyer
Image
Every time you look in the mirror remember that God created you and that everything He creates is beautiful and good!
Joyce Meyer

I didn't really understand the importance of little things. I didn't really understand that it was the little foxes that spoil the vine. And if we're not faithful in little things, that God will never be able to make us ruler over great things.
