As long as you pretend to be self-sufficient, you short-circuit God's power in your life. You need to admit your inadequacy and say, God, I can't handle this!

More quotes by Rick Warren
I believe in the separation of church and state, but I do not believe in the separation of politics from religion.
Rick Warren
What happens outwardly in your life is not as important as what happens inside you. Your circumstances are temporary, but your character will last forever.
Rick Warren
God's Word is not meant just to inform you, but to transform you.
Rick Warren
Life is a school and problems are the curriculum.
Rick Warren
God is much more concerned about your character than your career, because you will take your character into eternity, but not your career.
Rick Warren
We receive from God, then we give to others.
Rick Warren
Worry is focused thinking on something negative. Meditation is doing the same thing only focusing on God's word instead of your problem.
Rick Warren
You drift through life and let things happen to you, or go by design and say, 'This is what I'm intended to do.' The Bible is very clear that God has a purpose. But even if I know that purpose, I can't fulfill it if I'm out of shape.
Rick Warren
The church that doesn't want to grow is saying to the world, go to hell.
Rick Warren
The Bible offers three metaphors that teach us God's view of life: Life is a test, life is a trust, and life is a temporary assignment.
Rick Warren
AIDS is the leprosy of the 21st Century. Where did Jesus hang out? With lepers. Jesus would love on people with AIDS.
Rick Warren
Every problem is a character-building opportunity, and the more difficult it is, the greater the potential for building spiritual muscle and moral fiber.
Rick Warren
Faithful servants never retire. You can retire from your career, but you will never retire from serving God.
Rick Warren
God is always more interested in why we do something than in what we do. Attitudes count more than achievements.
Rick Warren
God doesn't intend for you to handle all the pain and stress in your life by yourself. We were wired for each other. We need each other.
Rick Warren
The only really happy people are those who have learned how to serve.
Rick Warren
If you're alive, there's a purpose for your life.
Rick Warren
Great leaders genuinely care for and love the people they lead more than they love leading itself.
Rick Warren
God wanted us to choose to love him.
Rick Warren
Great opportunities are often disguised as small acts of service.
Rick Warren
