It's Impossible To Live A Life Totally Free Of Feelings. God Created All Of Us To Be Emotional Creatures, And Feelings Are A Big Part Of Our Lives.

Grass Is Greener On The Other Side

The Source Of Our Stress Isn't Really Difficulties, Circumstances And Situations-it's Our Attitude And Approach Toward Them.

I've Been Studying The Bible For A Long Time. I Remember That After The First Five Years Or So Of Diligently Studying The Word, I Didn't Feel Like I Had Made Any Progress. There Were A Lot Of Things In My Life That Were Out Of Order, And I Didn't Feel Like I Was Getting Anywhere.

I'm Amazed Sometimes By The Christians Who Don't Really Believe That God Wants To Help Them And Bless Them.

If You Are A Believer Married To An Unbeliever I Want To Tell You That The Greatest Witness That You Can Be To Them Is To Try To Be The Same All The Time. Don't Let The Way They Act Control You. Dave Didn't Let My Actions Control Him.

All Complaining Comes From Pride.

Is There Any Real Purpose In Being Alive If All We Are Going To Do Is Get Up Every Day And Live Only For Ourselves? Live Your Life To Help Others. Give & Live Selflessly.

We Almost Always See Only What's Wrong With Other People And Not What's Wrong With Us.

If You're Holding On To An Offense, Then You Haven't Forgiven The Person Who Hurt You. Unforgiveness Finds Excuses To Talk About What People Have Done To Us, And We'll Tell Anyone Who Will Listen. There's A Difference Between Sharing Your Testimony To Help Someone And Talking About What's Been Done To You Because You Are Angry About It.

Set Your Mind That No Matter What Is Going On In Your Life, You Will Have A Good Attitude.

Anytime We Step Out Boldly To Make Changes, We Take A Chance That We Might Fail. But The Only Way To Get Better Is To Try.

A Truly Humble Person Knows That They Are Nothing In Themselves But They Are Everything In Christ.

Some Christians Feel Guilty When They Are Doing Something That Isn't 'spiritual.' Somehow Or Another, They Feel The Need To Hurry Through The Grocery Store, Dash Through The House Cleaning, And Rush Through All The Daily Aspects Of Life That Seem Irrelevant To Their Faith.

Passionate Desire

Don't Depend On Other People As The Source Of Your Happiness Or For Approval.

Everytime You Feed The Flesh, You Strenghten It. This Is Good If You Are Trying To Build A Good Habit, But Detrimental If You Are Trying To Stop A Bad Habit. The Way To "kill The Flesh" Is To Starve It; To Stop Feeding It.

The More We Keep Our Mind On Ourselves And Our Wants, The More Unhappy We Become. God Wants Us To Love Others And Meet Their Needs.

If You Can Manage To Be Thankful In Every Situation, Really Believing That God Is Working Everything Out For Your Good, You Will End Up With The Victory Every Single Time.

So Many People Live With Anger And Unforgiveness, And Many Of Them Are Christians.

If We Didn't Have To Stand Against Temptation, We'd Never Know Our Own Spiritual Strength.

80% Of People's Problems Are About How They Feel About Themselves.

If You Will Stop Feeding Your Feelings, Then They Will Stop Controlling You.

You Know, It's One Thing To Say You Believe. It's Another Thing To Have Your Faith Tested Severely And Come Out On The Other Side Of It Still Believing God.

Our World Has Created A False Unrealistic Image Of What Women Are Supposed To Look Like And Act Like. But The Truth Is That Every Woman Was Not Created By God To Be Skinny, With A Flawless Complexion And Long Flowing Hair. Not Every Woman Was Intended To Juggle A Career As Well As All Of The Other Duties Of Being A Wife, Mother, Citizen, And Daughter. Single Women Should Not Be Made To Feel They Are Missing Somenthing Because They Are Not Married. Married Women Should Not Be Made To Feel They Must Have A Career To Be Complete. We Must Have The Freedom To Be Our Individual Selves.

Your Emotions Are Very Unstable And Should Never Be The Foundation For Direction In Your Life.

Worry Is Like Rocking In A Rocking Chair All Day, Because It Keeps You Busy But Gets You Nowhere.

We All Get Weary Sometimes, And We Tend To Think That Life Is What Makes Us Weary.

You Don't Have To Give Way To Careless Speech Or Complaining. You Don't Have To Let Your Feelings Get In The Way Of What God Wants To Do In Your Life.

Forgiveness Is A Choice, Not A Feeling.

If We Didn't Struggle Through Some Things, We Would Never Develop The Strength And Stamina We Need To Survive In This World.

I Was Tormented With Guilt For Years And Years. In Fact, It Was So Bad That If I Didn't Feel Wrong, I Didn't Feel Right!

God Will Never Help Us Be Anyone Other Than Ourselves.

No Matter What's Going On In Our Lives, The Victory Is In Refusing To Quit.

We Want Our Marriage To Be A Triumph, Not A Tragedy.

The Only Way To Break The Chains Of Fear And Doubt Is To Know In Your Heart That God Loves You-no Matter What.

I Don't Just Pray For God To Open Doors, I Also Pray For God To Close Doors.

God Will Help You Be All You Can Be, But He Will Never Let You Be Successful At Becoming Someone Else.

Deadly Emotions, Buried Alive, Never Die.

I Consider Wisdom Supernatural Because It Isn't Taught By Men But Is A Gift From God.

God Wants To Use You To Make Other People Happy! And The Happier You Make Others, The Happier You Will Be Because You Reap What You Sow.

Contentment With Life Is Not A Feeling, But It Is A Decision We Must Make.

You May Get An Emotional Thrill When You First Buy Something, But Emotions Are Fickle. You Buy That One Thing You Think Will Complete Your Happiness, But After Awhile The Feeling Goes Away And You Have To Go To The Next Thing. You Just Keep Going From Purchase To Purchase Looking For The One Thing That Will Finally Satisfy. But Stuff Can't Satisfy.

Love Is Not Talk Or Theory; It's Action. In Fact The Bible Says That We Cannot Be Walking In Love If We See A Brother In Need, Have What It Takes To Meet His Need, And Will Not Do Anything To Help Him.

So Now, I Exhort You With This Truth: Don't Spend All Your Life Playing It Safe! Safety Is Very Comfortable, But It May Be Keeping You From God's Perfect Plan For Your Life.

Playing It Safe

The Great Thing About An Attitude Is That It's Yours And You Can Change It.

Is All Anger Sin? No, But Some Of It Is. Even God Himself Has Righteous Anger Against Sin, Injustice, Rebellion And Pettiness.

Better To Have A Big Goal And Reach Half Of It Than To Have No Goal And Reach All Of It.

As Long As We Complain, We Remain Stuck In Our Problems. But A Thankful Attitude Brings Deliverance And Makes God Smile.

We Often Say God Is Never Late, But Generally He Isn’t Early Either. Why? Because He Uses Times Of Waiting To Stretch Our Faith In Him And To Bring About Change And Growth In Our Lives.

Keep Your Mind Going In The Right Direction, And Your Life Will Catch Up With It.

Right Direction

Life Is Not Fair; God Is.

If You Will Tend To God’s Business, He Will Tend To Yours.

Satan Is The Master Distracter. He Is Always Working To Keep Us Off Track In Our Walk With God.

If You're Not Careful To Think And Speak Words Of Faith, Worry Will Creep In, And It Will Not Only Steal Your Peace And Joy, It Will Steal Your 'today.' The Present Is The Greatest Gift God Ever Gives Us. So Hold On To The Peace That's Yours In Christ. Don't Let It Go.

The Biggest Thing I Have To Keep In Mind Is Balance. I Have Certain Times And Days That I Dedicate To Certain Responsibilities. It Is Very Important To Not Become Unbalanced In An Area, Spending Too Much Time In One Area And Not Another.

God's Perfect, Unconditional Love And Faithfulness Are What Brought Me Through All Of The Healing, Restoration And Breakthroughs I Desperately Needed So I Could Become What He Created Me To Be!

Unconditional Love

Compromise Means To Go Just A Little Bit Below What You Know Is Right. It's Just A Little Bit, But It's The Little Foxes That Spoil The Vine.

I'm Jealous. I'm Mad. I Feel Bad. But One Day, I Woke Up And I Thought, You Know What? This Is Wearing Me Out. And I'm Not Getting Anywhere. So, I Decided That Even Though I Did Not Have A Good Beginning, I Made A Decision That I Was Going To Let Go Of What Lies Behind And I Was Going To Have A Great Finish.

It Is Better To Dream Big And Get Half Of It, Then Dream Small And Get All Of It.

You Know, God Will Give Favor To Anyone Who Will Believe Him. Every Day You Should Confess That You Have Favor Everywhere You Go. God Will Begin To Open Doors That You Wouldn't Believe.

We Need To Live The Life That We Say We Believe In.

I Encourage You To Deliberately Look For Something To Smile Or Laugh About Every Day, And Be Sure To Share A Smile Or A Laugh With Someone Else And Brighten Their Day Too!

Prayer Is Simply Talking To God Like A Friend And Should Be The Easiest Thing We Do Each Day.

You Can Think Whatever You Want To And Laugh, But I Believe If I Would Have Never Learned To Put My Stuff Back On The Right Grocery Store Shelves, And I Would Have Never Learned To Put My Cart Back Where God Told Me To, I Don't Believe I Would Be Standing Here Today Preaching This Message To You. And I Think There Are Literally Millions Of People Who Miss The Will Of God For Their Life Because They Think Little Things Don't Make Any Difference.

Attitude Is An Inward Thought That Wiggles Its Way Out.

Victory Is Not The Absence Of Problems, It Is The Presence Of Power.

Forward In Life

Encourage Everyone You Meet With A Smile Or Compliment. Make Them Feel Better When You Leave Their Presence And They Will Always Be Glad To See You Coming.

God Doesn't Help Those Who Help Themselves; He Helps Those Who Can't Help Themselves!

Christian Inspirational

I Believe That A Lot Of People In Our Society Today, People Who Have Been Hurt And Even People Who Haven't Been Hurt, Get Their Worth And Value From What They Do, What They Look Like, What They Own, What Kind Of Job They Have, What Kind Of House They Live In, How Much Money They Have, What Social Circles They're In, What Level Of Education They Have, Especially Even How Other People Respond To Them. They Feel Better About Themselves If Everybody Is Giving A Smiling Nod To The Way They Look And All Their Choices.

Get Up Every Day, Love God, And Do Your Best. He Will Do The Rest!
