More quotes by Max Lucado
Anger is the noise of the soul the unseen irritant of the heart the relentless invader of silence.
Max Lucado
I think you have to be very careful about any story that puffs you up.
Max Lucado
If anybody understands God's order for his children, it's someone who has rescued an orphan from despair, for that is what God has done for us. God has adopted you. God sought you, found you, signed the papers and took you home.

What we realize is number one, people want to know what the Bible says. In their heart, they want to know the Bible but it is just hard to understand the big picture of it. And number two, they want to know where they plug in.
Max Lucado
To accept grace is to admit failure, a step we are hesitant to take. We opt to impress God with how good we are rather than confessing how great he is.
Max Lucado
You're special-not because of what you have. You're special because of who you are.
Max Lucado
If we think that this life is all there is to life, then there is no interpretation of our problems, our pain, not even of our privileges. But everything changes when we open up to the possibility that God's story is really our story too.

Pastoring the flock with words. I love that. We always have a prayer time in the middle of our service. We take about eight or ten minutes before I preach, after we've sung, and invite people to come forward for prayer. That's a tender moment to me. I don't preach much in that, but I like to speak to the people.

The people who make a difference are not the ones with the credentials but the ones with the concern.
Max Lucado
The greater your cares, the more genuine your prayers
Max Lucado
What if you woke up this morning and had only the things you thanked God for yesterday?
Max Lucado
I'm first a pastor and then a writer.
Max Lucado
I think to trust in the sovereignty of God does not excuse my personal responsibility. Just the opposite - it equips me to be personally responsible.
Max Lucado
If you're feeling pain, express that to the Lord. If you're feeling worried, express those worries. One passage that gives me comfort is in Psalms, Chapter 11, verse 3, it reads, When all that is good falls apart, what can good people do? That's really the question of the day.
Max Lucado
To have a pure heart, we must submit all thoughts to the authority of Christ. If we are willing to do that, he will change us to be like him.
Max Lucado
Feed your fears and your faith will starve. Feed your faith, and your fears will.
Max Lucado
Indeed, baptism is a vow, a sacred vow of the believer to follow Christ. Just as a wedding celebrates the fusion of two hearts, baptism celebrates the union of sinner with Savior.
Max Lucado
When he says we’re forgiven, let’s unload the guilt. When he says we’re valuable, let’s believe him. . . . When he says we’re provided for, let’s stop worrying. God’s efforts are strongest when our efforts are useless
Max Lucado
Don't equate the presence of God with a good mood or a pleasant temperament. God is near whether you are happy or not.

We get a lot of unsolicited manuscripts here. Im not even a publisher, but we get several a week. I dont read them, but I do glance through some of them, and some people dont need to be writing, they have something else.
