When you face difficult times, know that challenges are not sent to destroy you. They're sent to promote, increase and strengthen you.
Joel OsteenQuit worrying about how everything is going to turn out. Live one day at a time; better yet, make the most of this moment. Itโs good to have a big โ picture outlook, to set goals, to establish budgets and make plans, but if youโre always living in the future, youโre never really enjoying the present in the way God wants you to.
Joel OsteenIt is your choice to be happy. Make up your mind to enjoy this day, to have a blessed, prosperous, victorious year. You may have some setbacks and your circumstances may change, but don't let that change your mind. Keep it set on happiness.
Joel OsteenThe truth is we all get tired, we all get weary. In fact, if you never feel like giving up, then your dreams are too small. If you never feel like quitting, then you need to set some larger goals. When that pressure comes to get discouraged and to think about how you canโt take it anymore, that is completely normal. Every person feels that way at times.
Joel OsteenI DECLARE that God has a great plan for my life. He is directing my steps. And even though I may not always understand how, I know my situation is not a surprise to God. He will work out every detail to my advantage. In His perfect timing, everything will turn out right. This is my declaration.
