When you allow what someone says or does to upset you, you're allowing them to control you.
Joel OsteenSometimes, I think if you get away from what you're called to do, it's more of a distraction.
Joel OsteenI don't believe we are supposed to go through life defeated and not having enough money to pay our bills or send our kids to college. When I hear some of that, I think that is not who I am, he doesn't know me or what I teach. I always talk about God rewards obedience. When you follow His way, the Bible says that His blessings will chase you down and overtake you.
