If you know you have to wait anyway, why not make a decision to enjoy your life while youโre waiting? Why not be happy while God is in the process of changing things? After all, thereโs nothing we can really do to make it happen any faster. We might as well relax and enjoy our lives, knowing that at the appointed time God is going to bring his plan to pass.
Joel OsteenMy core message is that God has got a good plan for your lives, and we must trust Him, and let go of the past. That's my main message.
Joel OsteenNo matter how long it's been, no matter how impossible it looks, if you'll stay in faith, your time is coming.
Joel OsteenPeople will try to label you not good enough, too slow, too old, too many mistakes. You can't stop negative comments or prevent negative labels, but you can choose to not let them hold you back.
Joel OsteenYou may have failed, but you are not a failure. That's what you did. That's not who you are.
Joel OsteenYou may think youโre getting the short end of the stick, but when itโs all said and done, God will make sure that you donโt lose anything truly valuable. Moreover, Heโll make sure you get your just reward. Your responsibility is to remain calm and peaceable even when those around you are not.
