I could imagine God saying to a lot of us, Hey, I'm God, and you're not. You're not the general manager of the universe. And the greatest stress reliever is take God seriously, but don't take yourself seriously.

More quotes by Rick Warren

Your spiritual family is even more important than your physical family because it will last forever. Our families on earth are wonderful gifts from God, but they are temporary and fragile, often broken by divorce, distance, growing old, and inevitably, death.
Rick Warren
Since God intends to make you like Jesus, he will take you through the same experiences Jesus went through. That includes loneliness, temptation, stress, criticism, rejection, and many other problems.
Rick Warren
Building friendships with people from dissimilar backgrounds and diverse perspectives will make you wiser and more creative.

Rick Warren
Pride builds walls between people, humility builds bridges.
Rick Warren
The Bible teaches that we are to love people and use money, but we often get that reversed and you start loving money and using people to get more money. Money is simply a tool to be used for good.
Rick Warren
For God to mend your broken heart you must give him ALL the pieces. You can't hold any back.
Rick Warren
There are accidental parents, but there are no accidental children. There are illegitimate parents, but there are no illegitimate children.
Rick Warren
Many people allow their need for other people's approval to control their lives. They spend their lives worrying about what others think of them.
Rick Warren
The easiest way to discover the purpose of an invention is to ask the creator of it. The same is true for discovering your life's purpose: Ask God.
Rick Warren
The best use of life is love. The best expression of love is time. The best time to love is now.
