Rick Warren

True humility is not thinking less of yourself; it is thinking of yourself less.

We are products of our past, but we don't have to be prisoners of it.

The more you pray, the less you'll panic. The more you worship, the less you worry. You'll feel more patient and less pressured.

You were made by God and for God and until you understand that, life will never make sense.

Forgiveness must be immediate, whether or not a person asks for it. Trust must be rebuilt over time. Trust requires a track record.”

Our culture has accepted two huge lies. The first is that if you disagree with someone’s lifestyle, you must fear or hate them. The second is that to love someone means you agree with everything they believe or do. Both are nonsense. You don’t have to compromise convictions to be compassionate.

Experience is not what happens to you. It is what you do with what happens to you. Don’t waste your pain; use it to help others.
