Do yourself a favor; donโt wear yourself out trying to please everybody. Your time is too valuable.
Joel OsteenPeople define Christianity differently. I think a large portion of our population are Christians, they're not all growing in their faith, they're not all active, but I believe that a lot of people believe in Jesus and believe that he is their Lord and Savior.
Joel OsteenItโs not always easy to get over some of those bumps in the road, those disillusionments and disappointments. Itโs going to take a strong will. Sometimes, it may take courage. Sometimes nothing but faith in God and say, I refuse to be trapped in the past. Iโm not going to let the past destroy my future. Iโm pressing on. Iโm straining forward, knowing that God has great things in store for me.
