Feeling sorry for ourselves is the most useless waste of energy on the planet. It does absolutely no good. We can't let our circumstances or what others do or don't do control us. We can decide to be happy regardless. -Joyce Meyer Good
It's amazing to me the number of people who will volunteer to help at church but won't lift a finger to help at home! -Joyce Meyer Home
Things in themselves have no life in them. A car can't comfort or encourage you. A house means nothing if there's no life and love inside. -Joyce Meyer Car
God's grace is amazing! We're saved by grace - God's undeserved favor - and we live by grace, which is also God's power in our lives to do what we could never do in our own strength. And it's all because God is love, and He loves us unconditionally, constantly and completely. -Joyce Meyer Power
When you begin to worry, go find something to do. Get busy being a blessing to someone; do something fruitful. Talking about your problem or sitting alone, thinking about it, does no good; it serves only to make you miserable. Above all else, remember that worrying is totally useless. Worrying will not solve your problem. -Joyce Meyer Good
I have learned from personal experience that putting trust in God means there will be some unanswered questions. That was a hard lesson for me because I naturally want to understand everything... to know what's going on so I can feel like I'm in control. -Joyce Meyer Trust
It's amazing to me the number of people who will volunteer to help at church but won't lift a finger to help at home! -Joyce Meyer Amazing
Forgiveness is not a one-time thing that happened the day you received Christ. It is an everyday thing, for the rest of your life. -Joyce Meyer Forgiveness
Early on in my life, I had a broken soul. I was abused by my father, abandoned by my mother and ended up in a destructive first marriage. By the time I was 23, I was broken in my soul. I didn't know how to think right. I felt wrong about everything. But God stepped into my life, and I came out on the other side and didn't even smell like smoke. -Joyce Meyer Marriage
Forgiveness is not a feeling - it's a decision we make because we want to do what's right before God. It's a quality decision that won't be easy and it may take time to get through the process, depending on the severity of the offense. -Joyce Meyer Forgiveness
Instead of being critical of people in authority over you and envious of their position, be happy you're not responsible for everything they have to do. Instead of piling on complaints, thank them for what they do. Overwhelm them with encouragement and appreciation! -Joyce Meyer Work
Prayer doesn't just change things - it changes us. If we are diligent in seeking God, slowly and surely we become better people. -Joyce Meyer Change
We will all fail in life, but nobody has to be a failure. Failing at a thing doesn't make you a failure. You are only a failure when you quit trying. -Joyce Meyer Failure
Choosing an attitude of faith will release peace out of your spirit and into your soul. -Joyce Meyer Attitude
Real life is the life that's in you, not your circumstances, like where you live or what job you have or who you're in relationship with. -Joyce Meyer Relationship
God's grace is amazing! We're saved by grace - God's undeserved favor - and we live by grace, which is also God's power in our lives to do what we could never do in our own strength. And it's all because God is love, and He loves us unconditionally, constantly and completely. -Joyce Meyer Amazing
We all face storms in life. Some are more difficult than others, but we all go through trials and tribulation. That's why we have the gift of faith. -Joyce Meyer Faith
We're not like robots. God promises to guide us through the Holy Spirit, but He gives us the freedom to make our own decisions. -Joyce Meyer Freedom
When you become a Christian, something truly amazing happens: God comes to live inside your heart. You become the home of God. -Joyce Meyer Amazing
I believe that a trusting attitude and a patient attitude go hand in hand. You see, when you let go and learn to trust God, it releases joy in your life. And when you trust God, you're able to be more patient. Patience is not just about waiting for something... it's about how you wait, or your attitude while waiting. -Joyce Meyer Life
