Christians can be positive even in a negative situation because we know God has a purpose for allowing that problem.
Rick Warren
Image
Your birth was no mistake or mishap, and your life is no fluke of nature. Your parents may not have planned you, but God did. He was not at all surprised by your birth. In fact, he expected it.

When you win, don't swagger. When you lose, don't sulk.

First open your heart, then open your Bible.
Rick Warren

I have the greater glory of God, the history is His story, that He is in charge and ultimately He knows what He's doing.

God wanted us to choose to love him.
Rick Warren

Lasting love extends grace. No relationship will make it without grace. The Bible tells us that this is part of love. You're not going to have a relationship unless you have forgiveness, mercy, patience, acceptance, grace. You've got to cut people some slack.

To make the best use of your life, you must never forget two truths: First, compared with eternity, life is extremely brief. Second, earth is only a temporary residence. You won't be here long, so don't get too attached.
Rick Warren
Image
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
Image
Jesus is knocking at your door. Take hold of the better life by letting him into your life. Make him the boss of your life. It'll change everything.
Rick Warren
Image
You may have done some really nifty things in life, but if you think they're going to get you into Heaven, forget it. The only way any of us are going to get in is by receiving God's gift of grace, which is available to every person.
Rick Warren
Image
When you have a major loss in your life, the first thing you need to do is tell God exactly how you feel.
Rick Warren
Image
Every church is flawed. Still, you'd better learn to love it since it's the only group Jesus said he's taking to Heaven.
Rick Warren
Image
Telling others how they can have eternal life is the greatest thing you can do for them.
Rick Warren

You can like somebody without agreeing with all of their policies.
