Image
Your value should not be determined by how somebody else has treated you.
Joyce Meyer
Image
What do you do when disappointment comes? When it weighs on you like a rock, you can either let it press you down until you become discouraged, even devastated, or you can use it as a stepping-stone to better things.
Joyce Meyer

If you will tend to God’s business, He will tend to yours.

Joyce Meyer
Image
Until we accept and approve of ourselves, no amount of approval from others will keep us permanently secure.
Joyce Meyer
Image
What we need to understand is that when traditions become laws, rules, obligations and expectations others put on us that we don't want to fulfill, then they lose real meaning and steal the joy from our lives. And if we're too religious, we won't be able to be led by the Holy Spirit and enjoy an intimate relationship with Him.
Joyce Meyer
Image
The first step to forgiveness is the desire to do it, no matter how you feel toward the person who hurt you. Then you make the decision to do it which means it's a firm decision that won't change when your feelings change. The next step is to depend on the Holy Spirit to help you do what you've decided to do.
Joyce Meyer
Image
God is speaking to us. But are we listening to Him? When our conscience begins to nudge us for whatever reason, we might have this low-level misery or uneasiness about whatever it is we've done or we're about to do. At times like this, it's wise to prayerfully consider whether we're offending God with our actions.
Joyce Meyer
Image
Justified means just as if you've never sinned.
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
Fear is a spirit that produces a feeling.
