Jesus measured greatness in terms of service not status. God determines your greatness by how many people you serve, not how many people serve you.
Rick WarrenYou measure a church's strength, not by its seating capacity but by its sending capacity.
Rick WarrenThat's the big difference between Christianity and other religions. The difference between Works and Grace or Do and Done.
Rick WarrenIf you are facing trouble right now, don't ask, โWhy me?โ Instead ask, โWhat do you want me to learn?โ Then trust God and keep on doing what's right.
Rick WarrenIf not to God, you will surrender to the opinions or expectations of others, to money, to resentment, to fear, or to your own pride, lusts, or ego. You were designed to worship God and if you fail to worship Him, you will create other things (idols) to give your life to. You are free to choose, what you surrender to but you are not free from the consequence of that choice.
Rick Warren
