Instead of focusing on that unappeasable person, refocus on Jesus, who accepts you unconditionally.
Rick WarrenBeing successful and fulfilling your lifes purpose are not at all the same thing; You can reach all your personal goals, become a raving success by the worlds standard and still miss your purpose in this life.
Rick WarrenThere are accidental parents, but there are no accidental children. There are illegitimate parents, but there are no illegitimate children.
Rick WarrenAnytime you feel jealous or envious, you reject your uniqueness. It's a criticism of God's plan for you.
Rick WarrenIf you're losing the battle against a persistent bad habit, an addiction, or a temptation, and you're stuck in a repeating cycle of good intention-failure-guilt, you will not get better on your own. You need the help of other people. Some temptations are only overcome with the help of a partner who prays for you, encourages you, and holds you accountable.
