Charles R. Swindoll quotes about
christian anxiety focus
When Christ becomes our central focus, contentment replaces our anxiety as well as our fears and insecurities.
christian running effort
Our great tendency in this age is to increase our speed, to run faster, even in the Christian life. In the process our walk with God stays shallow, and our tank runs low on fumes. Intimacy offers a full tank of fuel that can only be found by pulling up closer to God, which requires taking necessary time and going to the effort to make that happen.
christian people religion
In spite of our high-tech world and efficient procedures, people remain the essential ingredient of life.
graduation regret way
Go God's way! His is the most reliable route to follow when life gets complicated. It will have its tough moments, but you will never regret it.
life attitude impact
Words can never adequately convey the incredible impact of our attitudes toward life. The longer I live the more convinced I become that life is 10 percent what happens to us and 90 percent how we respond to it.
grace can-do
GRACE: All you can do is take it.
blessing giving decision
The decision to give ourselves to others is a daily taking up of the cross.
christian profound religion
There is no counsel like God's counsel. No comfort like His comfort. No wisdom more profound than the wisdom of the Scriptures.
christian winning joy
If God awarded us medals, as they do in the Olympics, love would win the gold, joy the silver, and peace the bronze.
preacher involved
I am a preacher. I'm involved in many other things, but, mainly, I preach. And I love it!
simple house support
Many seducers clutter the simple message of the gospel with legalistic additions, with convoluted attempts to legitimize moral compromise, and with psychological theories that turn churches into relational support groups instead of houses of worship.
decision waiting challenges
Next time you're faced with a credit-purchase decision, wait. Don't say no necessarily. Just wait. I challenge you to present your need to the Lord before presenting it to a bank, and see what He does with it.
hands purpose might
You and I can become so dedicated to the will of God, we can be so driven by a false sense of purpose, that we might inadvertently take matters into our own hands and leave God completely out of the loop.
jesus law broken
Jesus didn't come to earth to establish a new religion. He came to restore a broken relationship. He came to make the primary, primary again. The secondary activity of obedience to the law of God was always intended to serve the primary activity: to love God and enjoy Him forever. When that is primary, the secondary becomes a labor of love, a joyful, and "easy" burden to bear. (Matthew 11:28-30
