Joel Osteen Quotes

God has already done everything He's going to do. The ball is now in your court.

Here's an experiment: For one whole day think, speak, and act exactly as you would if you were absolutely convinced of the truth of the statements that God has all power and infinite intelligence, and that His nature is infinite goodness and love.

To act in accordance with them will be the easiest part, although it may require much in the way of moral courage.

Don't worry about what you don't have if you do have faith!

Your weakness can be turned to strength for God's glory.

If you worry, you are a worrier because your mind is saturated with worry thoughts. To counteract these, mark every passage in your Bible that speaks of faith, hope, and courage.
