Rick Warren
Image
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
Image
Trusting God completely means having faith that he knows what is best for your life. You expect him to keep his promises, help you with problems, and do the impossible when necessary.
Rick Warren
Image
We often miss hearing God's voice simply because we aren't paying attention.
Rick Warren
Image
God wants us to practice on Earth what we're going to do forever in eternity.
Rick Warren
Image
Your spiritual family is even more important than our physical family because it will last forever.
Rick Warren
Image
Prayer is the greatest use of my words.
Rick Warren
Image
Delays are as much a part of God plan as answered prayers. God wants you to trust him.
Rick Warren
