More quotes by Lysa TerKeurst
Instead of wishing things would change, I'm asking God for His strength to make a change.
Lysa TerKeurst
On the other end of the spectrum, we can't use this permission to sometimes say no and use it as a wand to wish away all our responsibilities. We also must remember not to use our no answers as a weapon. We can't turn into No! ninjas, karate-chopping anyone who even comes close to asking us for something.
Lysa TerKeurst
The secret to healthy conflict resolution isn't taking a 'you against me' stance. The secret is realizing it's 'us against Satan.' He's the real enemy.
Lysa TerKeurst
Even Jesus, the Savior of the world, had to take time each day to ask for his portion.

Lysa TerKeurst
Not reaching back for what was lost in my yesterdays. And not reaching for what I hope will be in my tomorrow. But living fully with what is right in front of me. And truly seeing the gift of this moment.
Lysa TerKeurst
Having God as an identity marker is nothing but a label, a language, and a lifestyle. I'm a Christian. I talk like one. I act like one. But having God as an identity changer is so much more. It's lavish abandon to who God is and who He's made me to be. Holding nothing back!
Lysa TerKeurst
God is good to me, even when life doesn’t feel good to me.
Lysa TerKeurst
This life is not about me. It's about joining hands with Jesus to fulfill whatever tasks He sets before me and to share His love with all He brings my way.
Lysa TerKeurst
I realize how desperately I need grace, therefore I try to lavishly give it.
Lysa TerKeurst
Jesus is the sanctuary every time we gather with other believers. We need that truth to soak into our hearts.
Lysa TerKeurst
If I really want an unrushed life, I must underwhelm my schedule so God has room to overwhelm my soul.
Lysa TerKeurst
The one who obey's God's instruction for today will develop a keen awareness of His direction for tomorrow.
Lysa TerKeurst
Chase God's heart today. Christianity has got to be more than a label, a lingo, and a lifestyle.
