I'm not a big believer in trying to jam stuff down somebody's throat: 'You're going to do it my way.' I'd rather show by example and live my life and have people say, 'You know what, I want to live like Joel has. He's got peace and joy, and he seems content.'
Joel OsteenWhen you center life around yourself, not only do you miss out on God's best, but you rob other people of the joy and blessings that God wants to give them through 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.
