Worry is really just a form of atheism. Every time you worry, you're acting like an atheist. You're saying, It all depends on me. That's just not in the Bible.
Rick Warren

God changes caterpillars into butterflies, sand into pearls and coal into diamonds using time and pressure. He's working on you, too.
Rick Warren
Image

Rick Warren
Image
There is an entire generation who was too young to read 'The Purpose Driven Life' 10 years ago but are now asking the critical question, 'What on earth am I here for?'
Rick Warren
Image
Many people are reluctant to show mercy because they don't understand the difference between trust and forgiveness. Forgiveness is letting go of the past. Trust has to do with future behavior.
