God is called the author and the finisher of our faith. He didn’t bring you this far to leave you.

[Joel Osteen @JoelOsteen]

God loves to take people who start with the odds against them and cause them to do extraordinary things.

[Joel Osteen @JoelOsteen]

God doesn’t love you because you’re religious or good enough. He loves you because You are His child.

[Joel Osteen @JoelOsteen]

There’s nothing you can do to make God love you any more or any less. It’s a gift. Just receive it.

[Joel Osteen @JoelOsteen]

When God breathed His life into you, He put a crown on your head. The Psalmist called it a crown of glory and honor.

I rather have Jesus then silver and gold

[Joel Osteen @JoelOsteen]

Character is developed in the tough times, when we’re not getting our way but we keep doing the right thing.

[Joel Osteen @JoelOsteen]

Whether you’re wearing Gucci or Wal-Mart, whether it’s Calvin Klein or Fruit of the Loom, your value never changes.

[Joel Osteen @JoelOsteen]

Sometimes you need to thank God for what didn’t happen. Thank Him for the enemies He’s stopped that you knew nothing about.

[Joel Osteen @JoelOsteen]

Everybody is dealing with something. Make up your mind that you’re not going to let it sour your life.

[Joel Osteen @JoelOsteen]

How somebody treats you doesn’t change your value. What they say or don’t say doesn’t lessen who you are.

[Joel Osteen @JoelOsteen]

Nothing you do will make you any more valuable. Nothing you achieve, nothing you overcome. You are valuable right now.

[Joel Osteen @JoelOsteen]

It may look like it is there to defeat you, but God is going to use it to increase you. No bad break can stop you.

[Joel Osteen @JoelOsteen]

Value is not based on what you do or who you know. That’s all superficial. Your value comes from your Creator.

[Joel Osteen @JoelOsteen]

Get rid of the excuses. You may have had a rough start, but you’re not going to have a rough finish.

[Joel Osteen @JoelOsteen]

God is called the author and the finisher of our faith. What He started in your life He will finish.

[Joel Osteen @JoelOsteen]

Nothing that’s happened to you can keep you from your destiny. The only thing that can stop you is you.

[Joel Osteen @JoelOsteen]

There are some situations God waits a long time to change. You have to trust that He knows what’s best for you.

[Joel Osteen @JoelOsteen]

When you come through this challenge, that victory will be the fuel you use to push through to the next level.

[Joel Osteen @JoelOsteen]

Your value doesn’t come because of what you look like, what you do, or who you know. Your value comes from God.
