Give Him your mess and let it become your message.
Joyce Meyer

Patience is not just about waiting for something... it's about how you wait, or your attitude while waiting.
Joyce Meyer
Image
Instead of concentrating on your problems and getting discouraged, focus on God and meditate on His promises for you. You may have fallen down, but you don't have to stay down. God is ready, willing and able to pick you up.

You can enjoy anything if you make up your mind to.
Joyce Meyer

When you begin to worry, go find something to do. Get busy being a blessing to someone do something fruitful. Talking about your problem or sitting alone, thinking about it, does no good it serves only to make you miserable. Above all else, remember that worrying is totally useless. Worrying will not solve your problem.
Joyce Meyer

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.

If we continue to believe God and place our trust in Him, bad things ultimately give way to better things.

People who don't know the true character of God - who don't believe He is merciful, gracious and slow to anger - can never have a close, personal, intimate relationship with Him.
Joyce Meyer

We have an epidemic of insecure people in our society today.
Joyce Meyer

If you're missing joy and peace, you're not trusting God.
Joyce Meyer

If I believe the Bible, then I don't believe that a gay lifestyle or a homosexual lifestyle is the right way to choose to live. I believe that there's something so much better.
Joyce Meyer
Image
To know and experience what God can do, we must first realize and acknowledge what we cannot do. We must get our eyes off of ourselves and our limited ability, and totally onto Him and His infinite power.
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.

One of the best gifts we can give ourselves is time alone with God.

Everywhere you look you see people searching for love but they're looking in the wrong places. God is love, and they will never find what they're looking for until they find Him.
