Worry is momentary atheism crying out for correction by trust in a good, sovereign God. Suffering breaks self-reliance.

More quotes by Randy Alcorn
There's a throne in each life big enough for only one. Christ may be on that throne, or money may be. But both cannot occupy it.
Randy Alcorn
Put your resources, your assets, your money and possessions, your time and talents and energies into the things of God. As surely as the compass needle follows north, your heart will follow your treasure. Money leads hearts follow.
Randy Alcorn
The currency of this world will be worthless at our death or at Christ's return, both of which are imminent.
Randy Alcorn
Give deliberately. Giving is at its best when it's a conscious effort that's repeatedly made.
Randy Alcorn
Many Christians dread the thought of leaving this world. Why? Because so many have stored up their treasures on earth, not in heaven. Each day brings us closer to death. If your treasures are on earth, that means each day brings you closer to losing your treasures.
Randy Alcorn
Give regularly. Stewardship is not a once-a-year consideration, but a week-to-week, month-to-month commitment requiring discipline and consistency.
Randy Alcorn
God gives us abundant material blessing so that we can give it away, and give it generously.
Randy Alcorn
Not only will we see His face and live, but we will likely wonder if we ever lived before we saw His face!
Randy Alcorn
God comes right out and tells us why he gives us more money than we need. It's not so we can find more ways to spend it. It's not so we can indulge ourselves and spoil our children. It's not so we can insulate ourselves from needing God's provision. It's so we can give and give generously (2 Corinthians 8:14 9:11)
Randy Alcorn
Real gold fears no fire.
Randy Alcorn
When you leave this world, will you be known as one who accumulated treasures on earth that you couldn't keep? Or will you be recognized as one who invested treasures in heaven that you couldn't lose?
Randy Alcorn
By trusting Christ's redemptive work for us, we can enter into what we long for: the happiness found only in God.
Randy Alcorn
The greatest deterrent to giving is the illusion that this earth is our home.
Randy Alcorn
This is one of the great paradoxes of suffering. Those who don't suffer much think suffering should keep people from God, while many who suffer a great deal turn to God, not from him.
Randy Alcorn
Materialism is a fruitless attempt to find meaning outside of God. When we try to find ultimate fulfillment in a person other than Christ or a place other than heaven, we become idolaters. According to Scripture, materialism is not only evil it is tragic and pathetic.
Randy Alcorn
For the Christian, death is not the end of adventure but a doorway from a wold where dreams and adventures shrink, to a world where dreams and adventures forever expand.
Randy Alcorn
I believe the most dangerous misconception is the idea our money and possessions belong to us, not God. Many of our problems begin when we forget that God is the Boss of the universe. But in fact He is more than the boss He is the owner.
Randy Alcorn
Sin and death and suffering and war and poverty are not natural—they are the devastating results of our rebellion against God. We long for a return to Paradise—a perfect world, without the corruption of sin, where God walks with us and talks with us in the cool of the day.
Randy Alcorn
What you do with your resources in this life is your autobiography.
Randy Alcorn
To procrastinate obedience is to disobey God.
