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.

My father was a mean, controlling and manipulative person for most of his life. He was unpredictable and unstable. As a result, the atmosphere of our home was super-charged with fear because you never knew if what you did would make him mad or not.

Image
We're not like robots. God promises to guide us through the Holy Spirit, but He gives us the freedom to make our own decisions.
Joyce Meyer
Image
Because my dad abused me, I was determined to never let a man tell me what to do. God clearly showed me that I needed to be a submissive wife if I wanted to be effective in ministry. The truth is, if we don't learn to submit to authority, we won't ever learn to submit to God.

Prayer is simply talking to God like a friend and should be the easiest thing we do each day.
Joyce Meyer
Image
We may feel fear but we do not have to give in to it. We can do whatever we need and want to do, even if we have to do it afraid. Courage is not the absence of fear it is action in the presence of fear.

It's amazing to me the number of people who will volunteer to help at church but won't lift a finger to help at home!
Joyce Meyer
Image
When we are overly concerned with what people think we will be controlled by the thoughts and opinions of other people.
Joyce Meyer
Image
Don't do what's right to get something. Do the right thing because it's the right thing.
Joyce Meyer
Image
God has equipped you to handle difficult things. In fact, He has already planted the seeds of discipline and self-control inside you. You just have to water those seeds with His Word to make them grow!
Joyce Meyer

Don't give up on the people you love. Your patient love and faithfulness may be exactly what they need to make a complete turnaround.

Image
If you are tired of living on the beaten path that everyone else walks, venture into the woods. Some people would be afraid they would get lost, but a confident woman expects to have a new experience that might be outrageously wonderful.

Any time we are misused or used for a purpose other than what God intended us for, it's damaging.

We worship God with our entire life - with every decision we make and everything we do

When it comes to our everyday habits, it's important to ask: 'Am I putting God first?'

God is able to do anything. All things are possible with Him, but we must not quit praying.

Courage means to keep making forward progress while you still feel afraid!
