I don't just have only the peace of God, I do also have a God who gives peace, not just resources but the revelation of His presence.
~ Patience Johnson
Be anxious for no thing, be concerned about the state of your soul and that of your children, be concerned about God's work in the world; these are genuine concern but when it comes to the things in your life.....be not anxious. If God is for us who can be against us?
~ Patience Johnson
Don't think because you can't affect something at a great level that God can't use you in a great way. David didn't even train one day with the armies but He won the war. He didn't even have a weapon but he killed a giant.
~ Patience Johnson
God wants to use you right where you are with what you have not what you do not have.
~ Patience Johnson
We always think that God's presence is always provided to fix our problems but what if God's presence is more about fixing your perspectives? So that you will have a new way to see your problems. If you didn't make your bed before leaving home this morning, no angel is going to make your bed for you, it is still going to be as you left it till you come back.
~ Patience Johnson
Some people want to kill goliath but they do not want to attend to sheep. How can God use you to kill giants if you cannot follow simple instructions?
~ Patience Johnson
Sometimes we want God to use us to do big things when we would not even want to do the basics.
~ Patience Johnson
You don't have to position yourself in front of people to be used by God. You don't have to convince anyone that you are good enough for the voice of God, just be grateful that God chooses who He wills and once He is ready to use you, no devil in hell can stop Him.
~ Patience Johnson
You can't disappoint what God has appointed.
~ Patience Johnson
If you can't see the assets in you, it will be hard for you to export it to the world. Recognise who you are and the world will recognise you.
~ Patience Johnson
People run around looking for millions of likes in their life and on the social media but do you know what? If you get just one true like from just one who loves you the most, it surpasses all other millions. God loves you the most even without make over.
~ Patience Johnson
In God's presence I find peace that is much deeper than any disappointment. I will grow and I understand I can't grow myself, that is why I need God and His grace.
~ Patience Johnson
We are all planted in God's vineyard and our lives are filled with potentials and purpose and we have all been given the hopes to anchor our lives even in the most disappointed times. So God is waiting to see what you and I will make out of the raw materials that He has given to us. He is waiting to see what we will make out of the discouragement and disappointment. I believe that in those deepest places of disappointment that the greatest grace will manifest.
~ Patience Johnson
I am so glad that God's disappointment in me is not greater than his love and I still have a Destiny. I am growing in grace and mercy because that is the only soil that can produce the kind of life that God desires.
~ Patience Johnson
God's voice will be heard in the cave but only His visions will be revealed to you on the mountain. (A bit deep). God will always love you and will always speak to you but when you lose your perspective, you won't see his plan.
~ Patience Johnson
Some people are disappointed in their life because they are trying to use the tools that God did not authorised them to use in their life, trying to build on a purpose that is not even attached in their personality.
~ Patience Johnson
In God’s Kingdom there are no overnight sensations or flash-in-the-pan successes.Anyone who wants to be used of God will experience hidden years in the backside of the desert. During that time the Lord is polishing, sharpening and preparing us to fit into His bow, so at the right time, like “a polished shaft” He can launch us into fruitful service. The invisible years are years of serving, studying, being faithful in another person’s ministry and doing the behind-the-scenes work. The Bible says, ‘God is not unjust; he will not forget your work’ (Hebrews 6:10 NIV 2011 Edition). Be patient; when the time is right He will bring forth the fruit He placed inside you.
~ Patience Johnson
Common man's patience will bring him more happiness than common man's power.
~ Amit Kalantri
Anyone can choose to have success, but only the patient ones will get rewarded by it. Be relentless in chasing your dreams.
~ Aaron Lauritsen
Don't live off your past successes or failures, live for the next big pursuit.
~ Aaron Lauritsen
Integrity is something we show, not proclaim.
~ Aaron Lauritsen
The only real certainty is that if you get to live, you gotta die. Live life now.
~ Aaron Lauritsen
The funny thing about money is that you can't take it with you, so don’t try to.
~ Aaron Lauritsen
Don't compare the size of your roof with the size of the sky.
