I was reading back in my journal from when I read The Purpose Driven Life by Rick Warren…here are a few of the quotes that I copied down…
“You were made by God and for God-and until you understand that, life will never make sense.”
“When you live in light of eternity, your values change.”
“Anything you do that brings pleasure to God is an act of worship.”
“Everything you do can be “spending time with God” if he is invited to be a part of it and you stay aware of his presence.”
“Relationships are what life is all about.”
“Real fellowship happens when people get honest about who they are and what is happening in their lives.”
“Humility is not thinking less of yourself; it is thinking of yourself less.”
“We must passionately love the church in spite of its imperfections.”
“Everything that happens to you has spiritual significance.”
“If I have no love for others, no desire to serve others, I should question whether Christ is really in my life.”
“When conflict is handled correctly, we grow closer to each other.”
“God’s ultimate goal for your life on earth is not comfort, but character development.”
“The way you think determines the way you feel, and the way you feel influences the way you act.”
“Many who claim to believe the Bible “from cover to cover” have never read it from cover to cover.”
“There is no growth without change, no change without fear or loss, and no loss without pain.”
“Your character is essentially the sum of your habits.”
“Knowing and loving God is our greatest privilege, and being known and loved is God’s greatest pleasure.”
