Men, learn to speak blessings over your wife and you will see that woman rise to a new level. She will respond to your praise and encouragement. Your words don't have to be poetic, fancy, or profound. Tell her simply but sincerely, "You're a great mother to our children. And you are a great wife to me. I'm so glad I can always count on you."
Joel OsteenWhen you have a spirit of excellence, you do the right thing not because somebody is watching or making you do it; you do it because it's the right thing to do.
Joel OsteenSometimes we look back and 10 years from now we think, 'Boy, those were great old days.' Well, you know, we're living in the good old days.
Joel OsteenGod will give you strength when you think you canโt go on. He will give you joy when you should be discouraged. He can make a way when it looks impossible.
Joel OsteenWe all have unfair situations and things we don't like. You can get bitter, discouraged and sour, or you can see it as fertilizer and say, โ This difficulty is not going to defeat me; it's going to promote me. It's not going to hinder me; it's going to help me.โ Don't just go through it, grow through it.
Joel Osteen
