What you believe has a much greater impact on your life than what anybody else believes.
Joel OsteenSalvation and Christ's love is a gift. You don't earn it. You've got to receive that gift. I think one of the most important things is starting off the day forgiving others and forgiving yourself. You learn from your mistakes, but I don't think you have to drag them back into today.
Joel OsteenEvery day we have plenty of opportunities to get angry, stressed or offended. But what you're doing when you indulge these negative emotions is giving something outside yourself power over your happiness. You can choose to not let little things upset you.
Joel OsteenIf youโre not seeing God move in your life right now, one of two possibilities must be considered. Either your requests are not Godโs best and will probably not be answered the way youโd like or it must not be the right time. If God were to answer that prayer the way you are hoping, it could interfere with his ideal plan for you.
