More quotes by Warren W. Wiersbe
When you and I hurt deeply, what we really need is not an explanation from God but a revelation of God. We need to see how great God is we need to recover our lost perspective on life. Things get out of proportion when we are suffering, and it takes a vision of something bigger than ourselves to get life's dimensions adjusted again
Warren W. Wiersbe
Four Lessons on Life 1. Never take down a fence until you know why it was put up. 2. If you get too far ahead of the army, your soldiers may mistake you for the enemy. 3. Don't complain about the bottom rungs of the ladder they helped to get you higher. 4. If you want to enjoy the rainbow, be prepared to endure the storm.
Warren W. Wiersbe
A good book is like a seed: it produces fruit that has in it seed for more fruit. It is not a picture on the wall it is a window that invies us to wider horizons.
Warren W. Wiersbe
The greatest judgment God can send on His people is letting them have their own way.
Warren W. Wiersbe
We must never mistake the process for the result...there is suffering but this is only the process. God isn't going to stop with the process He wants to produce the final result. Suffering leads to glory shame leads to honor weakness leads to power. This is God's way of doing things.
Warren W. Wiersbe
God made us and God is able to empower us to do whatever he calls us to do. Denying that we can accomplish God's work is not humility it is the worst kind of pride.

Outlook determines outcome.
Warren W. Wiersbe
Contentment is not escape from the battle, but rather an abiding peace and confidence in the midst of the battle.
Warren W. Wiersbe
You do not move ahead by constantly looking in a rear view mirror. The past is a rudder to guide you, not an anchor to drag you. We must learn from the past but not live in the past.
Warren W. Wiersbe
Jesus asked the Father for his disciples' security, sanctity and unity. Jesus still intercedes for us so fervently because we live in a world that is deceived, dangerous, defiled and divided.
Warren W. Wiersbe
If life is to have meaning, and if God's will is to be done, all of us have to accept who we are and what we are, give it back to God, and thank Him for the way He made us. What I am is God's gift to me what I do with it is my gift to Him.
Warren W. Wiersbe
Most important, Christmas should be a spiritual experience....Christmas is not just an event in time it is a spiritual experience available to every person who hears the Gospel.
Warren W. Wiersbe
Sometimes fear comes, not before the battle or even in the midst of the battle, but after we have won the victory.
Warren W. Wiersbe
Remember, your worth is founded in Jesus Christ.

A prophet weeps while others are laughing.

When we change the message of God, we change the God of the message.
Warren W. Wiersbe
I will be satisfied to the extent that I see everything I have as a gift from God. Here is the truth: Everything you have – your money, talent, friendships, marriage, children, material possessions, health, home, bike, car, even the country you live in – is a gift from God that He had chosen out of His generous nature to give you.
Warren W. Wiersbe
Those times when you feel like quitting can be times of great opportunity, for God uses your troubles to help you grow.
Warren W. Wiersbe
Hypocrisy means deliberately pretending. None of us lives up to his ideals none of us is all that he would like to be or all that he could be in Christ. But that is not hypocrisy. Falling short of our ideals is not hypocrisy. Pretending we have reached our ideals when we have not - that is hypocrisy.
Warren W. Wiersbe
Christ is more concerned about what we do with Him than for Him.
