More quotes by Lysa TerKeurst
We have to slow the rhythm of rush in our lives so that the best of who are can emerge.
Lysa TerKeurst
Dear Lord, forgive me for all of the times I've compared myself to others. I know that You have hand-picked all of my qualities. Help me to see these things as beautiful reminders of Your great love in creating me as Your daughter. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
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
Sometimes we miss the miraculous of all that we have been blessed with because we're so focused on the one thing we don't have. When this happens, we become disillusioned with all that we do have.
Lysa TerKeurst
I want my kids to head out the door full of peace, not the echoes of my frustrations.
Lysa TerKeurst
Bad moments don't make bad mommas.
Lysa TerKeurst
Having faith doesn't mean I have all the answers. It means trusting God especially in the midst of uncertainty.
Lysa TerKeurst
One drop of the Lord's mercy is better than an ocean of the world's comfort.
Lysa TerKeurst
I will give you the treasures of darkness, riches stored in secret places … In the most unlikely places I will bless your efforts and reward your perseverance with small indications of your victory.
Lysa TerKeurst
Most of us spend years chasing things in this world that we think will make us feel loved. But everything this world has to offer is temporary. Everything. The kind of love our souls crave is lasting, eternal. And only God can fill up our hearts with that kind of love.
Lysa TerKeurst
The decisions you make determine the schedule you keep. The schedule you keep determines the life you live. And how you live your life determines how you spend your soul.
Lysa TerKeurst
Too many people think that finding the reason God placed us here on earth will come in one assignment with a big title and complete job description. I believe that discovering our purpose will unfold slowly, like a seed planted deep in the ground.
Lysa TerKeurst
Remember, conflict doesn’t always mean we have to fight against something and tear it apart.... Conflict can also mean we’re fighting for something to make it even better and stronger than it’s ever been.
Lysa TerKeurst
I realize how desperately I need grace, therefore I try to lavishly give it.
Lysa TerKeurst
God does not want to make us comfortable as much as He wants to make us comfort-able - to take the comfort that we receive and share it with others.
Lysa TerKeurst
The decisions we make dictate the schedules we keep. The schedules we keep determine the lives we live. The lives we live determine how we spend our souls. So, this isn't just about finding time. This is about honoring God with the time we have.
Lysa TerKeurst
Where there is a lack of rest, there is an abundance of stress.
Lysa TerKeurst
Everything I do and say tells a story of who I am serving. If I am acting out of anger and spite, I am serving the father of darkness and spreading his darkness. If I am honoring to the Lord with my actions, I am serving to further the name of Jesus and spreading His light.
Lysa TerKeurst
Progress. Just make progress. It's okay to have setbacks and the need for do-overs. It's okay to draw a line in the sand and start over again - and again. Just make sure you're moving the line forward. Move forward. Take baby steps... Then change will come. And it will be good.
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.
