Weโre not completely happy here because weโre not supposed to be! Earth is not our final home; we were created for something much better.
Rick WarrenThe first step to becoming what God made you to be is to stop worrying about what others want you to be.
Rick WarrenIn the Old Testament, it says that if you have the power to do something good, then you have to do it. You're not to avoid helping somebody in their time of need.
Rick WarrenThe fact is, ministry is too unpredictable to be motivated by security. Itโs too unprofitable to be motivated by money. Itโs too demanding to be motivated by pleasure, and itโs too criticized to be motivated by fame. Our ministry should be motivated by the pleasure of God, and God is pleased when we have a ministry powered by faith.
Rick Warren
