Humble people ask for help.
Joyce Meyer
Image
Humility may well be one of the most difficult of the fruit of the Spirit to be cultivated in us - and to maintain. That's because without humility, it's not likely that you will put your complete trust in God.
Joyce Meyer
Image
If someone you know makes a bad decision or uses bad judgment, it doesn't mean you have to allow that to alter your attitude. Why should you allow anyone else's bad decisions to send you into a tailspin of misery?
Joyce Meyer
Image
Peter was the only one who walked on water besides Jesus, but he was also the only one who got out of the boat. Until you make a decision to believe, and then act on it, nothing will happen.
Joyce Meyer
Image
Positive minds full of faith and hope produce positive lives.
Joyce Meyer
Image
We often think more highly of ourselves than we ought to, and it's easy to judge others and be critical of their weaknesses and shortcomings. But this self-righteous attitude is a sin that we can be blinded to because we're so focused on what the other person did wrong. The reality is this attitude is worse than the wrong behavior we're judging.
Joyce Meyer
Image
There is nothing as tragic as being alive and not enjoying life... Life should be celebrated!
Joyce Meyer
Image
We all have two lives: an inner life and an outer life. Your inner life is your soul life, which includes your mind, will and emotions. Your outer life is your physical life. And while God cares about every detail of your life, He is more concerned with your inner life than your outer life.
Joyce Meyer
Image
Each time we act to improve the life of another person, we send forth a ripple of hope in what appears to be a hopeless society.
Joyce Meyer
Image
When Jesus comes to live in our hearts, the seed of holiness is planted.
Joyce Meyer
Image
Forgiveness is not a feeling - it's a decision we make because we want to do what's right before God.
Joyce Meyer
Image
Many sophisticated, intelligent people lack wisdom and common sense.
Joyce Meyer
Image
Feeling sorry for ourselves is the most useless waste of energy on the planet. It does absolutely no good. We can't let our circumstances or what others do or don't do control us. We can decide to be happy regardless.
Joyce Meyer
Image
If we're really honest with ourselves, most of us will admit that we want to impress people, and this is what's causing us to do what we do.
Joyce Meyer
Image
Life will not always change, so we must be willing to change.
Joyce Meyer
Image
Unity increases power.
Joyce Meyer
Image
If you're holding on to an offense, then you haven't forgiven the person who hurt you. Unforgiveness finds excuses to talk about what people have done to us, and we'll tell anyone who will listen. There's a difference between sharing your testimony to help someone and talking about what's been done to you because you are angry about it.
Joyce Meyer
Image
In my relationship with God, I've learned that if I follow a 'formula' for how I spend my time with Him, then I'm just accomplishing a checklist of things I feel obligated to do to please Him. This makes my spiritual life more about doing what I need to do to fulfill an obligation than something meaningful.
Joyce Meyer
Image
As believers in Christ, we are part of Him-God the Father decided before the foundation of the world that anyone who loved Christ would be loved and accepted by Him.
Joyce Meyer

If you want to be unhappy, uncomfortable, and insecure, just spend your life trying to do something that is not right for you. It is just like trying to wear shoes that don't fit.
Joyce Meyer
