The truth is God created us to have relationship with us. He wants to love us and take care of us, and He wants us to love Him. That's where our walk with Christ has to start.
Joyce Meyer
Image
The Bible has the answers to our everyday life. Many times people don't realize how practical it is.
Joyce Meyer
Image
You have to press against the pressure that’s pressing against you!
Joyce Meyer
Image
God knows the mess we’re in when He calls us. His light shines greater through “cracked pots” than it does through those who have it all together.
Joyce Meyer
Image
I imagine that it saddens the heart of God when we murmur and complain, instead of being thankful after He's been so good to us.
Joyce Meyer
Image
When we are truly confident and secure, the opinions of others cannot control us.
Joyce Meyer
Image
Any day that we don't give up puts us one day closer to success!
Joyce Meyer
Image
We don't think there's something wrong with one- year-old children because they can't walk perfectly. They fall down frequently, but we pick them up, love them, bandage them if necessary, and keep working with them. Surely our heavenly Father can do even more for us than we do for our children.

Forgiveness is a CHOICE, not a feeling.
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
The source of our stress isn't really difficulties, circumstances and situations-it's our attitude and approach toward them.
Joyce Meyer
Image
If we know God is for us, then it shouldn't matter how we feel, or what other people think of us.
Joyce Meyer
Image
When doubt comes against us, we have to lift up the shield of faith. We do this when we open our mouth and say what God's Word says, rather than grumbling and complaining about the problem.
Joyce Meyer
Image
Stop being tomented by everyone else's reaction to you.
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
We will never enjoy life unless we make a quality decision to do so.
Joyce Meyer
Image
Sometimes I just sit still and enjoy God's presence.
Joyce Meyer
Image
If you make a mistake, it doesn't mean you're a mistake.
Joyce Meyer
Image
Sadly, the truth is, there aren't many people who can be put in high positions who won't start thinking highly of themselves.
Joyce Meyer
Image
I have learned God doesn't always change those people we want Him to change instead, He often uses them to change us.
